Thank you very much for your time Sir'.  I am enjoying and learning a bunch from your lessons. I will pay it forward!

Those of you who are critical please move on, record that CD if you have no immediate plans. This guy is helping us, most of us appreciate it. A small minority choose to do otherwise. I for one appreciate all the help I can get. Thanks Adam!

I've been trying to see it that is a flat pick or a thumb pick.

[adamschlenker]

@yeshua4U For me it's always a flat pick. I prefer the the "tri-tip" shaped pick.

[yeshua4U]

@adamschlenker I watched closer and just this morning went out and bought a bunch. For now I like the softer ones, actually my wife who just started to play the mandolin uses the "tri tip" and I liked hers.. Thanks

I am an intermediate guitar player who plays a lot of worship music, so these lessons with the flat picking are a real challenge for me, but I really am enjoying them, I find that I can pick out the first few lessons much easier with my fingers than the pick, but I'm sticking with it.

@yeshua4U Stay with the pick. New technique always feels odd at first but is invaluable. If you run into any questions or road blocks do feel free to contact me.

hey this maybe a stupid question but does the paige capo you have there behind the nut play any role in creating the tone you have or is that just where you put it when you're not using it? Videos are great by the way, keep em' comin, thanks.

im personally a heavy metal player, and your videos have helped alot it gave me a new perspective for my style of playing, thanks.

[adamschlenker]

Some of the fastest pickers on the planet are metal shredders & bluegrass flat pickers. Its good to hear we can learn from each other for a common goal, to become better players!

[adamschlenker]

Good ears! Yes that part of the exercise is pretty much 8 More Miles. I don't know that it started out to be but once is settled in it just made since.

Thanks
