Okay @Moonhare , since you opened the can I will offer the minority opinion. The flat pick is like a bicycle: when you find balance you are off to the races. No need for anything other than the sensitivity of you thumb and index finger. Slow down, manage your tension, play softly and find the balance…..be the pick. When you find the balance push your volume but do not give in to the darkside of tension. A couple of weeks ago we did a flat pick warm up (Even Crosspick WU17) and then a progression challenge (Squeal Like A Pig, yes a disturbing title), these are the keys to finding balance. Devote a few minutes everyday morning and night and soon you will know the balance of the now grounded and balanced flatpick. No magic pill here, just hours and hours of honest down-home fun. ⛏⛏⛏
