About this course
Hybrid picking isn’t just a flashy technique for solos—it’s a powerful tool for creating musical expression, articulation, and dynamic textures that cut across styles. In The Complete Guide for Hybrid Picking, master guitarist Prashant Aswani guides you through a comprehensive, modern approach to this versatile method.
Across 58 in-depth lessons, you'll build precision and control in your picking hand as you learn to seamlessly integrate pick and fingers. You'll explore linear and adjacent string phrasing, hybrid-picked triads and arpeggios, piano-style stabs, and expressive slides. You’ll also apply the technique to full musical pieces—like “Inner Conflict” and “Cloudy Day”—as you master transitions, double barring, tremolo, and complex hybrid licks.
Whether you're crafting intricate textures, expanding your rhythm vocabulary, or pushing your lead chops into new territory, this course will equip you with the mechanics, musicality, and vocabulary to make hybrid picking a core part of your voice on the instrument.
If you're serious about elevating your technique and creativity, this is the hybrid picking course you’ve been waiting for.

Series Introduction
Welcome to The Complete Guide to Hybrid Picking with Prashant Aswani. In this introduction, Prashant will discuss the purpose of this series, what he aims to teach and the tools and techniques you need under your belt to get started.
Proper Hand Positioning
To get started on hybrid picking, we first have to make sure we're positioning our picking hand properly. The hand can change slightly based on whether or not you're muting or going for a more open sound. Prashant gets us setup with the correct positioning, no matter what type of sound we're going for!
The Middle Finger (Adjacent String)
The best way to start hybrid picking is using the finger closest to your pick - the middle finger. Prashant shows us the techique and some practice exercises to get it down!

Great course!
I've been enjoying working through this course! Hybrid-picking was never a go-to technique but I've been using it a lot more and am very happy with the versatility it offers. Works great for me using an Ultex Jazz iii pick!
