This is more or less how I started holding a pick when I just started playing guitar without anyone showing me how to or not hold the pick. Using both my index and middle finger to support it. Then I got to join my first rock band and the leader saw my picking, thought it was just weird and told me I'll never play a proper rock guitar if I'm holding a pick that way. So I changed. But lately on a rare occasion when I pick up my electric, I've been going back to it and it still feels natural.
i'm not sure what there is to say though haha. Depending on the instruments, we record rhythm parts first. If there's a drummer, they should be ideally the first to record, in my opinion! it's easier to place rhythm guitar or bass to the drums than the other way around. Sometimes we record guide tracks first as well. i think that's what we did here. i did some fake guitar and bass, and then we rerecorded over it.
@@DenisChangMusic cool! thanks for the reply! i guess the only other question i have is if there is a click in the headphones at all. i think it's amazing how great these remote recording sessions sound!
I've been working at this for some time now but with less impressive results. I have a hard time keeping the pick from "turning around" when I play this way. Have you run into that with any students? It drives me nuts!
Il y a deux ou trois videos en ligne qui montrentle benson picking mais j'ai encore des doutes á propos de l'index et la libre flotation de la main. Il semblerait que toi meme dans cette meme video ne gardes pas l'index completement courbé. Mais encore une fois, je m'embrouille avec un detail peut etre?
Hi! For this style of picking, I usually use around 1mm. They can't be too thick because we're actuallly using a lot of the side of the pick. If it's too thick, you lose a lot of articulation. It can't be too thin and floppy, because you end up shredding the pick to pieces. In this video, I'm using something called Dunlop Ultex Sharp .90. I heard GB uses Fender Mediums which I do use as well
