Posted by: Eat-Sleep-andJam Mar 17 2007, 04:12 AM

Sometimes when im speedpicking I hold my pick with my pointer finger and my thumb yet I occasionaly llighty tough the pick with my middle finger . Is that bad ? It feels really good when I speedpick though.



Thanks- John

Hey, I tried that and it is not to bad. Everyone does things differently. I think we all will do little things to create our style so it should not be bad. As it try doing that it seems to help my hand be more compact and helps it move faster, you may be on to something here.

The old saying "if it feel good do it" applies in most cases LOL

NO it's not!! biggrin.gif Actually I think Steve Morse hold the pick with his index and middle finger. Try a whole bunch of way of holding a pick and see witch you like the best.
