Quintuplets Workout! My Economy Picking Secrets

Quintuplets is the name given to groups of 5 notes, as opposed to triplets (groups of 3s) or eights/sixteenths (groups of 4s). Popularized by legendary players like Eric Johnson and Shawn Lane, quintuplets are often overlooked by most guitarists, so today I wanna change that!

In this video I'm gonna show you a relatively straightforward way that you can implement them into your playing with economy picking to really spice up your solos and set your playing apart from the triplet-spamming masses. I would highly recommend spending a bit of time mastering the foundations of economy picking before tackling this, but that being said, all 5 licks come with backing tracks of varying speeds so everybody should be able to have some fun with this.

Good luck and don't forget to share your progress with everyone in the Discord server!
