HinTMarlow, Even if you prefer to play without a pick, I suggest using one for any flatpicking or rhythm lessons, because TAC is teaching fingerpicking, flatpicking, and rhythm with the pick. It makes you a more rounded player, and you’ll find many songs can’t always be finger picked or strummed to sound similar to the original. @TMutter is someone who had never used a pick be&ore TAC. Maybe he’ll chime in. I know it took him a while to master and feel comfortable with a pick, but its possible.
