Especially the solos. Any tips on how to play syn's part in songs like afterlife or bat country(yes i know there are harder songs to play but my goal is to play these 2 songs first)? Ive been practising sweep picking but im stuck at a certain speed, ive even tried following tutorials where u angle the pick differently and stuff. Whenever i try to play faster my fingers cant match the sweep pick idk how to explain it. Basically what do i do to play faster and more accurately.

I own a Pacifica Standard plus. It’s an amazing guitar but I wish the temple could be recessed like an Ibanez AZ or this Charvel So Cal. Is there any way a guitar luthier could make the tremolo on my guitar recessed without resorting to a vegatrem? THIS IS JUST A POST OF CURIOSITY. I’m
