your weirdo turkish pal here again! :p
well, this time ill dont try to be funny or smthin :)

ok...
its a tele with 9 gauge...
i practiced alternate picking, n build some skills on it... not so great but theres a process everybody can notice... my left-right hand interaction gettin better, buildin up some speed, n dexteriy was nice...
then i focused on finger picking for polyphonic area...
(i hope its the right word for it, eh)

i shaped long nails except my pinky, n practicin some spanish guitar tecnics...
everything was great, im so enjoyed picking multiple strings, buildin rhtyms with a rich harmony of sounds... but theres a big problem... electric strings eatin away my nails... especially my forefinger...

im not so harsh on picking but it happens for sure everytime...
i know some great guys like albert collins dont use a pick for picking...
any advice for finger/nail picking on electric?
