Hey!
my title's kidna wrong i meant to say ".. WHAT PICKS ARE BEST?". My appologies
Joined GMC yesterday and man i love this place! Real nice job kris!
i saw the alternate picking video and realised i was kinda holding my pick slanted in the opposite way to Kris's. Didnt think it mattered until i felt like the way i held my pick was a restricting factor when i tried out a couple basics on sweep picking.
I decided to change it and hold the pick like Kris. it kidna looks like this from above: \
The way i used to hold it: /
Ofcourse it seems like a completely new start and playing scales seems like more of a challange but i guess ill get used to it
Did i make the right choice though? in changing the way i held it? Doesn it really make a difference or is it just my mind playing tricks? heh
another thign was im having a hard time choosing a pick to use for sweeping and speedpicking.
my current options are:
Jim Dunlop .96mm Nylon
Jim Dunlop .73mm Nylon
and
Jim Dunlop 2.0mm Stubby triangle.
I feel like i could do almost equally well with all three. Whts best for speed picking and sweeping?
Thanks guys
