New to guitar playing? Learn how to fingerpick -- play guitar with your thumb and fingertips instead of a pick -- in this Howcast video tutorial.
Ok, so let's talk about fingerpicking. This is a big big topic in guitar world. There's many guitarists that only fingerpick and they can get do a pretty amazing thing with just fingerpicking. But so, were are just gonna introduce a little bit of the ideas here, and so obviously you don't need a pick right. We are just gonna use our fingers. To, play separate notes for each chord to get some kind of rhythm's or some interesting ideas, right. So i am just using the same chords that we have been using G,E minor C and D, but now let's try to do something fancy with our fingerpicking right, i am gonna play rythm of pattern right 'm goin, dha dha dha dha, dha dha. Now how do i thing of that well, i am trying to copy the strum that i did. The first strum which was, PA, PA PA PA PA, PA, PA PA PA PA. So i can copy that exactly or you know i could change it little bit to get the same accents DHA DHA DHA DHAA, DHA DHA, DHA DHA DHA DHAA, DHA DHA, alright, that's all i am doing. Now i am gonna make G chord here right and so, my pattern is gonna be the six string with my thumb, then i am gonna use my index finger, to play the third string.Then i am gonna use my middle finger to play the second string and then, i am gonna use my ring finger to play the first string, alright. So i am going DHA DHA DHA DHA, DHA DHA right.Thumb, index, middle, ring, middle, index, right. And we could try with E minor the same exact pattern. Right, how about with C, now the thing with C is, i have to change the pattern of it a little bit right. I am just bringing my thumb down to the fifth string that's where C is, that's why i am doing that, right. So C is in on the fifth string up the six, so, that's why i have to do there. The rest are the same right, and then for D same thing i have to move my thumb. Because now D, the note D is on the forth string, but everything else stays the same, right, so if i put it all together what do i have. I have G right, remember our rhythm, then i am going to E minor. Then C, then D, so one more time we have G, E minor, C, D. So that's how you get started with fingerpicking.

As a beginner, I had spent time with other teachers to learn technique to make good (mostly) sounds, and with this video I was able to quickly use technique to play, like, actual fluid music! Amazing, and thanks. I'm 70, and never thought this would happen. Great posts!

[@leascaart]

This guy's tutorials are still some of the fastest and most effective in YT. This was created in 2011. That's 10 years ago. Tens, if not hundreds, of others have come along and created a career out of teaching how to play guitar online. But NONE top the way this awesome man teaches... hands down!!!

My hand bounces when I try to finger pick is there anyway to correct that?

[@xThatBoiChris]

Use ur pinky as an anchor so ur finger picking hand won’t go flying all over the place

[@Societyhasfailedus]

Back when KZbin wasn’t blasted with adds fxk this place

[@lilai.6087]

Oh so you have to make your own pattern?

[@sonnysanchez9486]

[@ccctc100]

THANKS I DO IT HAHA

[@xxfiro176]

E is on 4th string

[@user-rb3ey4gh3g]

xx firo E is the 6th string

[@xxfiro176]

o E is definitely on the 6th string , but if you want to fingerpick the Em , your thumb have to pluck the 4th string

[@_lawless_yt2530]
