I use a silly little way of playing scales sometimes...I alternate between my thumb, using a thumbpick, and index finger, ascending.. Descending, I also use my middle finger. The sound of the thumbpick and the sound of the flesh of the index finger are quite different. When alternating between the fingers I can punctuate notes on different beats, depending on which finger I start the scale with...Does this make any sense? Does anyone understand me or should I maybe stop this and learn some "real" stuff....
