| Thumbpicks
Who's tried them? Who likes and regularly uses them?
I tried one ages ago and didn't like it, but when I got heavily into Travis-picking stuff over the summer, I found the thumbpick really helps bring out the bass parts in fingerstyle playing.
On the twelve-string, it make fingerpicking much easier too, as you're not having to angle your thumb in a wierd way to catch both notes on each course.
Nowadays I leave one clipped behind the nut on both my steel-string acoustics.
Anyone else? |
