Flat Picking and Fingerstyle Genre Study

Course: Genre Studies

In this video

In this genre studies part of the intermediate course, we look at ‘Flat Picking’ and ‘Fingerstyle’. This should help to choose which genres you wish to specialise in after doing this course.

In this video, we'll compare and contrast how to get the folk style single string playing with two contrasting techniques, one using a pick (Flat picking) and one without (Fingerstyle aka fingerpicking). 

The following TAB can be played with either technique. I encourage you to have a go with both!
