Always encouraging content that you provide. Great strumming tip on the pick. I've been playing 6 or so years and learn from many of your lessons. I will start angling the pick because the pick does start moving in my fingers. Thank you very much!
no prob at all and thank u for watching. Yes, angling that pick makes all the difference - try it out. Enjoy and stay tuned - lots more lessons and content coming. I also have another RUclips channel at ROCK ON GOOD PEOPLE here: ruclips.net/user/rockongoodpeople - which is more instructional based and not song based like this channel - be sure and check that one out also - lots of killer lessons and content as I post on both channels.

Useful ideas. Worth trying. Thanks. I'd be interested in your thoughys on how the angled pick relates to style. I discovered your channel via a 9 year old video on the Grateful Dead. Garcia was known to use Adamas picks, which you showed. Very thick. But I've also heard that he used more of a perpendicular style, which probably required a heavy attack albeit with touch. I don't think of him as a shredder. Is the angled pick primarily about speed?
Hi and thank you for watching and for ur kind words - most appreciated. I think the angling of the pic just helps to reduce friction and helps cut thru the strings so to speak. I think that can help with an genre - although certainly helps with speed. But I find it most helpful and all my students I teach it to find it helpful as well. But some do go perpendicular or straight on and thats cool if that works for you. Find what feels best and works best and sounds best to your ears and make it yours.
