5-String Alternate Picking Pattern with Dual Escape Mechanics (Septuplets @ 65–70 BPM)

5-String Alternate Picking Pattern with Dual Escape Mechanics (Septuplets @ 65–70 BPM)

This exercise focuses on a 5-string alternate picking pattern incorporating both upstroke and downstroke escape mechanics on each string change. The pattern is performed as septuplets at a controlled tempo of 65–70 BPM, emphasizing string transitions, consistent pick trajectory, and rhythmic accuracy. The goal is to develop efficient two-way pickslanting technique while maintaining even subdivision and relaxed mechanics.
