Heh. :)

Honestly, I agree with breezy. A lot of the picking patterns I use are just Merle Travis-style folk arpeggios. At least, according to my old guitar teacher.

There's an excellent book of strumming and picking patterns for various styles of guitar music, which I picked up years ago. Good enough that when I showed it to Teacher he flipped, and immediately ordered a shipment of them for the rest of his students.

(Title, etc., escapes me now but I'll post it when I get home if you like.)

Slán,
