    Oh, and by the way...
    Why is that point always so overrated? I mean, you dont even need it in rock/metal, just classical, country and blues...I've always wondered. :think:

    I'm not sure which point you're talking about as being overrated. The bottomline is that there is no absolute technique which has to be followed since what you play is going to be unique to you. As long as you can play whatever it is that you want to play, your technique is adequate. For a beginner, I suppose just because you don't want to use a pick doesn't mean you shouldn't even know how to. However, the rules are just 'ought to's rather than musts.

    As for the list you demand, there really isn't anything quite as silly as what you've asked for. I just listen to them playing and I know they're better.



    Greeshma: surprise, surprise. I do know the allegro you refer to.

    ^You had said
    Which means you consider the pick ineffective for playing guitar...Or atleast in a minimal sense, you meant finger picking is better than using a plectrum.
    That was cool and cent per cent true, though.
    Picking cleanly, never going out time for a nanosec (and some more finer points of playing) are just cultivated over time and anyone can have it...but the style of playing, the point where your music melds with your character, is always different for everyone.

    ^Hopefully that gets my point some strength and some reps for me. :p:

    1. Happy to see bjr giving some real advice.

    2. Abt the girls vs boys talk:And you listen to rock?

    3. @greeshma: Do what feels comfortable. If you wanna use a pick use it. Or not if you don't want to. Jeff beck, Mark Knopfler etc Never used picks.

    4. Whoever was the guy who said you cant play rhythm without picks? rhythm guitar was there before picks were invented.

    No, thats not what i meant at all. I meant what i said about different techniques. there is a difference between not knowing how to play with a pick and choosing not to play with a pick. Its all the difference in the world. There is no MUST anywhere....well, except listening to great gig in the sky.


    @yazi- I do give lots of advice when im at home and i can browse forums with time to spare. else, i just address the chit chat lounge because it is the most interesting thing on igt sadly.

    @greeshma- indeed, i do know how to play it. i havent heard animals and cant right now so if i ever do,i can help you with it.

    Oh and btw, Greeshma, if you look at a tab, hear the song, and still cant figure out what goes where, download Powertab and get the PowerTab (*.ptb) file for the song. It was a problem that plagued me in the beginning too, when I wasnt experience enough.

    No connection in those two. >_>
    Power chord - A chord formed by a root note and its fifth. (Often argued to be a chord formed by a root note, its fifth, and an octave)
    Powertab - A software, you write music score/tab in it, and it generates an MIDI showing you roughly (in terms of sound quality) how it'll sound. It's file's extension is .ptb. Get a ptb file for a song from UG, play it in the software, it'll show you what note is playing, and what part of the song sounds like what. Handy thing to have. A paidware alternative is GuitarPro.
