This shred guitar etude has you playing 6 notes per beat, hitting six notes on one string, going up to the next string and hitting six notes, then you go back to the first string you started on and play 3 notes on that string then up to the next string for 3 more notes, then you finish the bar with a single note one string higher.
This pattern repeats through various positions in the key of G/Em. You are welcome to play 3 notes per beat to simplify things.

This shred guitar etude is inspired by Paul Gilbert sixes. Basically, you go up six notes across two strings, then start the next six notes on the same string you ended the first group of six notes. Do this until you reach the top two strings, then go down in the same fashion.
This is played in the key of G/Em, and begins with the 3 notes per string F# Locrian mode/scale shape. It climbs up a full octave and then resolves to a G note. Here are the tab files for this etude:
This etude is inspired by the intro to Iron Maiden's song "The Trooper".
The original song's tempo is about 162 BPM. For the video demo, the etude is at 180 BPM. You are welcome to play this at any tempo you like. Here are the Guitar Pro and PDF tabs for this etude:
This etude is focused on down picking. It uses a half-whole diminished scale starting on the low E string, then switches to starting on the A string.
The 8th note sections are there for a break from the faster picking, and are there to show you what's going to be played in the faster picked parts. All the 16th notes are palm-muted. Here are the tab files for this etude:
This etude, written in Em, is designed for pushing your picking speed and endurance for metal guitar playing.
First, we have quarter notes to show what notes are going to be used during the 16th notes portion, as well as helping you lock on to the beat/tempo. Then, we switch to 8th notes to further establish the tempo, help prepare the mind for going faster, and show the progression of notes going back down. Last, we go up and down the same notes shown with the quarter and 8th notes, but this time you play 16th notes. The etude starts on the low E string, goes up to the A string, then up to the D string, back to the A string, and finishes back on the low E string. Each time you start a quarter note section, you get some slight rest before having to push yourself again. Here is the tablature for this etude: (please adjust the tempo to better suit your playing abilities and goals)
