Legit Guitarist?   Message List  
Reply | Forward Message #2253 of 2395 |
Hi:

I've tried, but using a pick doesn't work for me. Just
does not feel natural, and I hate the clacking sound
the pick makes. Can anyone be considered a legitimate
guitarist if they strum only with a thumb?

Michael

P.S. I've done finger picking, and that's fun! :)
