This is the first time we've ever put anything on putfile, so we hope it works..
This is me playing the rythm guitar and my friend singing, it's an old tune, but we hope you like it. In case you've heard it, we tried to put it on the forum before, but I'm afraid I think something was wrong with that clip..
Tell me what you think!

That was really cool. Do you pick with your fingers and use the pick at the same time?

Thanks man, I usually play rythm with picks cause i play a lot gypsyjazz, but I recently discovered the joy of playing with my fingers. Always thought It was impossible because I've played with a 3mm pick all the bloody time.

Anyhow, im using only fingers on this clip but i always keep the pick in the back of my palm in case i wan't to put some more "intensity" in my playing.
I havn't got the patience to learn the right fingerpicking cause I always seem to get it wrong. Being selfthought is a "#¤#" sometimes and I wish i've had a tutor from the start.
Im not that happy with this clip (but then again I never am) The rythm was a little sloppy at times and the solo was dull (allthough I didn't play the solo)
I will stop rambling for now... Confused
