Hello all. 3 months into learning guitar and I have a question regarding thumb vs pick. It may be an age thing, but I am finding it so much easier to learn just using my thumb vs using the pick. I can use a pick and do, but section over section, I am much more comfortable with my thumb and much smoother. As soon as I "pick up" the pick, its like my 2 hands are no longer talking to each other. Bizarre??!!

Is this something that experience may overcome? Thoughts are welcomed and appreciated. Thanks!


This year the diet is definitely gonna stick!
