Do you enjoy listening to bluegrass music? Are you particularly enchanted with the styles that go with it especially on the guitar? Do you want to play the same music like a maestro? What are you exactly interested in-the bluegrass guitar picking techniques? If yes, here is what you need to know to master these styles and embark on a journey to name and fame.
To begin with one should be well aware of how many picking techniques are there. These techniques comprise finger picking, flat picking and thumb picking styles, which are employed by guitarists of repute. Then again, a guitarist should know which style best suits a song and choose the right one accordingly.
These methods call for an apt understanding of rhythm, without which these styles would have no meaning. A guitarist should remember that bluegrass guitar is particularly rhythm based and this requires knowledge of basic chords, sense of rhythm and timing, playing the bass and understanding the sounds.
If one is in tune with rhythm of bluegrass guitar, one can easily learn to play various picking styles including finger picking, flat picking and cross picking, which are integral to this genre of guitar music. Finger picking, as the term suggests is dependent mainly on how a guitarist creates a melodious mix of rhythm and melody using his fingers to pluck the strings.
Cross picking is another technique often employed by guitarists. It is quite like playing the banjo and adds a touch of unsurpassed melody to a song. However, it is often quite challenging to play, especially when the tempo of the song quickens. The fact that several renowned guitarists of yore followed this style proves that it is worth learning and mastering.
Flat picking is another style that is the rage with a majority of the guitarists today. It can be used both with rhythm and lead playing as it is much simpler than cross picking. It calls for using the thumb and the fingers to tug at the high and low strings simultaneously. Bluegrass guitar picking techniques are fun to play, but one has to work hard to master them.
