Ok, I wanted to hear from some others orgers on this. I taught myself to play with the side of the index finger and thumb. A guitarist I have been working with on technique suggested I try to relearn picking by holding it between my fingertips. He had me sample it that way and indicated that the sound was much better than the way I was doing it.

I find it difficult, and of course would have to retrain myself...but, just wondered others approaches.

How do you hold the pick when you play rhythm?
How do you hold the pick when you play lead?
