  • Wow, really awesome chops, Nick! Is it right that you use your elbow for the picking and not the wrist, or am I wrong? Thank you Nick

  • @BeatBay ---I've used this picking style for 40 years--for me {not necessarily everyone} as the speed goes up the wrist morphs to the elbow.The GB grip allows the wrist to stay loose.For the past 3 years I've tried {so far unsucessfully} to combine the power and dynamics of this style with the more relaxed wrist osciliation.

  • @NickPycks6 Very nice. I have noticed this myself ( the speed elbow thing ). It just happens and there ain't no controlling it.....anyway, at my age why bother, jus' play the music, man

  • @skipheaton--- The GB grip DOES allow a looser more relaxed wrist at faster picking clips...it's osilliation physics stops the elbow movement...I would like a loose wrist with THIS type of picking power !! the STIFF wrist plays STIFF music. WE are never to old to learn.
