Hi Frank,

Great question! Unfortunately there's not much on the Guitar Tricks site at this time on tremolo picking with a pick for rock guitarists. There are a few lessons on tremolo picking with the fingers for classical guitarists: https://www.guitartricks.com/lesson.php?input=15595&s_id=1089

I know you are more of a rock guitarist though and looking for how to do it with a pick like Eddie Van Halen in "Eruption." If you schedule a 1 on 1 live online lesson with me I can get you going in the right direction with a few exercises of my own. Here's a link to my online schedule: https://guitartricks.acuityscheduling.com/schedule.php?calendarID=1274409&fbclid=IwAR35LuhmQIjAsO_BNLAO351u0GQvGwofQ5T3_92nJZSa7dDNn2hDfTZP5IU

I hope to see you soon!

-Dave

I've been working on this technique for the last few days, and I can't seem to get it down. Are there any other lessons on the website I'm missing?
