Hey guys,

I'm actually pretty new to the guitar (working my way through fundamentals I which isn't too difficult) but I like to solo a bit with the minor pentatonic scales to some blues tunes.

I'm wondering how I should pick while soloing. Alternate picking or just normal "downstroke" picking...Is there even a consens about it or is everybody doing it like he likes or even changing (alternate picking for fast things and normal picking for everything else).

Would be great if somebody could help me here.
