I'd like to hear it picked with your fingers rather than with that harsh plastic thing...
I'm sure a Phillistine for playing with a plectrum.

Here is his response:this is more my style, though. I guess I'm just harsh and plastic at heart

@premiermusic Okay...I was a bit out of line. Thanks for being civil about it. I just have a thing about a pick being used for anything other than strumming rhythm. Cheers and thanks for the cool vids... Now throw the pick away and get some tone happenin' ;-)
@zomboxy Thats one of the nice things about music being an art, though...we can all have our distinctive voices. I play finger style, hybrid picking and with the pick...for this particular bit of music I felt it as best articulated with something of a hybrid pick and fingers approach..
Not everything has to be Jeff Beck or Derek Trucks.

I've been listening to a lot of Chet Atkins, trying to figure out why every 2nd or 3rd note sucked. Turns out the culprit was this.
Jerry Douglas's notes suck at least 200-300% more frequently.
He's fretting with that harsh metal thing too. Is he allergic to strings?
