Yes, the experience is very enjoyable! Before I discovered fingerpicking it was hard to move away from just playing melodies and partial songs with chords. (I do really love playing melodies, especially the Chritmas ones.) But now that I've discovered fingerpicking, I'm learning my chords better, and playing them better. Funny how that works! I really love the strumming tutorials in Acoustics 1 and Anders is a great instructor.
