In this exercise continuous alternate picking (up and down) is performed in triplets with a plectrum on each string. The triplet rhythm increases the demand on the right hand, because now a stressed upward movement (v) must be carried out on beat 2 and 4 of each mesure. In order to avoid disturbing background noises, the right hand dampens the string and produces a short, dry sound (palm mute).
The alternate picking exercise is included in the Guitar Lovers Studies PDF or as play along track in the Jamtracks PDF which feature high graphic resolution for printing and integrated sound.
