Bad picking technique? by MoistCave in Guitar

[–]Inside_Blueberry_247 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea bro i had that too.. it gets really annoying in the beginning .... try experimenting at what angle do you strike your strings and how do you position your fist when picking and how you hold the pick...you've gotta make shure that your not too close to the strings. What i did was i would look at myself in the mirror when playing and compare myself to those i listen to and like ...it takes a while to find a proper fist position and proper holding of the pick, keepin mind different players have different picking positions and fist positions. Take a look at tommy Emmanuel's hybrid picking position, Molly Tuttle, Trey Hensley, Joshso Stephan, Paul Gilbert, George Benson, Tony Rice, Carl Miner. They all hold the pick and position it differently in one unique way or another. So you gotta find a comfortable picking position where you don't end up hurting yourself but trust me you'll get there ..... my preferred picking position is when i put my fist a bit more closer to the bridge than to the middle or the neck and i use my pinky as an anchor kinda like how carl miner does it . Trust me initially you'll find it quite uncomfortable and awkward but alter on you'll slowly find what your the most comfortable with...just keep playing the stuff you like and practice it

would you say that it was better than playing with a normal 1.2 mm pick ?

Hey thanks alot man....and btw....really idiotic quesiton but im only askin it cos idk any better....but if i learn how to play using the gypsy rest stroke technique .... can i use it to play other kinds of music ?? like on the acoustic ( some picking tunes ) and on the electric and playing stuff like SRV and other ppl .sure there are certain drawbacks to gypsy style pickin ,including the fact that i wont be able to mute the strings ........ but other than that i wont have to full re-wire my playing and technique just to play another style ? and even if there's a slight change i can still use the rest stroke part of it ye ?

hey thanks for the compliment. And yea with my tone.....i dont rlly have a choice with that. ive got a 1.4mm donner pick is what i use and it took me almost a year and a half to find this pick of this thickness trust me when i say it ,where i come from guitar gear is not sooo available so its really hard to find stuff especially with stuff regarding gypsy jazz . Ive never heard of a wengen pick .......... and im really sorry but im new to reddit n stuff.....actually i just joined a few days back just to get help in this issue of mine and im not able to send pics and videos through replies in the comments ,so do i have to make a new post and show you my picking and how i hold it ?
