I play arpegio's with my fingers, cause it's a biy hard playing it with a pick
' and its clumsy...(I mean arpegio's you play clean, not in the middle of a solo, but arpegio's like the one in Green day's "Time of your life"
I can play it with a pick, but I don't feel comftorbale with it...

So should I feel bad not mastering the technique? Should I just work on it and spend time practicing sweeping(Is playing arpegio's called sweeping?) with a pick ?

Thx... :o

I play with my fingers ALL the time, so approaching standard arpeggios wasn't so awkward for me. But if you use a pick on all other occasions, I'd say you just need to practice your other picking techniques a bit more until you feel confident enough to have another go at arpeggios.
