A lot of people ask me why I STOPPED using a thumbpick for my fingerstyle guitar playing.

It's complicated, and it's a topic that I have really struggled with.... A LOT :-)

Using a thumpick worked great for me a while, but as I developed more of my own musical voice,
it just wasn't the right tool for the job I needed done, musically speaking.

There were some nice qualities I had to give up actually!

If YOU are not sure whether or not to use a thumb pick, maybe this video can help you out!
