Thread Name: Help: finger picks, no feel, but crisp
Subject: finger picks, no feel, but crisp
Yesterday I dug around and listened to JUSTAPICKER's music. Very Nice. Clean. Athoritative. Mr. JP, you must be using Finger Picks to get such a clean sound.

I've tried the garden variety F-Ps and I'm hitting multiple strings and the volume is erratic. I can't feel what I'm doing.

In order to get a sound similar to JustaPicker's (which I admire), I think I'll need to use FPs. I really don't like them. But to get that sound, do I just need to play with them for 60 days to force my hands to learn?

(Because of my "real" job, I can't use acrylic nails or grow human nails too long)
