Figerpicking on guitar?
I play guitar for a while, but I looked fingerpicking today. I wondered if I had to get used soon to use all my fingers of my hand instead of choosing what my guitar Dummies book recommended that dont use your little finger. I do not want to start any bad habits before is too late. And so, I wonder what is served with a base note in a chord / scale. Thanks
Justin, classical guitar is not always used right little finger to pull the strings. The reason is that the little finger is much shorter than the other fingers do not align well with the other three fingers on the strings. By Therefore, if the Pinkie is included in the collection, the hand is in an awkward squat reading and fatigue quickly. Furthermore, the same intensity (regularly) collection is difficult. Since Western music is triadic in nature (the chains of three or more notes) the lack of the little finger is not a loss. The thumb plays bass notes regularly and the other three fingers play the treble notes … works quite well in practice. It is true that flamenco guitarists can use a finger to boot, but his playing style is very different from the classical guitar and strums depends heavily on human resources for rhythmic effects. If you want a good start with finger-style game, I recommend the following book: "You Can Teach Yourself Classic Guitar" Will the Bay. (A publication of Mel Bay for fifteen dollars to your local music store nearby). Good luck to you in this effort worthwhile. Cliff E. (classical guitarist)
