using a thumbpick. it's challenging to say the least.  haven't learned the whole thing yet but it's coming along I guess.

I came to class stoned out of my mind every day, i chugged vodka in the back of class, i put dead fish in the ceiling tiles. i put a gallon of old milk and orange juice in the file cabinet before winter vacation. i brought snakes in a tied up sweater and let them loose during class. i didnt go to school to learn, i went because i had to. i didnt care, and i didn't fucking listen to that stupid bitch. and i still don't fucking care. i tore the pages out of her books and burned them, and threw away all the books in the class, two books per day.

thanks. yeah after just a couple days it's gotten a lot cleaner. playing with a thumbpick is really awkward at first but once you get the hang of it, and it stops hurting, you can play a lot of cool styles with it.

Nice tune. What guitar was that recorded on?
What thumb pick are you using? My favorite is the Fred Kelly slick pick medium gauge, find its easier on the thumb too.
Do you have your nails growing out yet?

Yeah I've been finger picking for a little bit, so I got my nails grown out just a little. The guitar was a martin om1e, through it's pickup. I use dunlop mediums.

After I tried the fred kelly picks I could not go back to anything else, you can get six on ebay for like 4 bucks.
If you want to see some amazing fingerstylists check for starters:
Preston Reed
Andy Mckee
Don Ross
Tommy Emanuel
Antoine Dufour
Justin King
Michael Hedges

here just some messing around with a thumbpick. note, the percussion hits got distorted, I think because of the software I was using.
