The thumb takes the 6th,5th, and 4th strings, your index finger gets the 3rd, middle gets the 2nd, and ring the 1st. And kind of like the way speed picking is with alternate picking, unless there's a very pressing reason in the song not to you want to keep that right hand setup always. For practicing, try finding 'basic travis picking patterns' online. There should be some. Good luck! You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.

Travis picking is pretty much another name for "fingerstyle" though "a common variant of fingerstyle guitar" is probably the best way to put it. More or less there are several patterns(commonly 'inside out' 'outside in' 'pinch' and appreggio) which encompass it. I cant really explain it very well. Maybe http://hobbies.expertvillage.com/interview...tyle-guitar.htm will help You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick. Plus all our lessons are packed with free content!
