Just started today.
Having a ball.
Ordered three books. Each was diff....
Have 3 Martin guitars. Love Martins.
I am delighted with the flatpick method.
Got a case of the giggles over this!

Supposed to be practicing on the banjo, but this flatpick thing has my interest. I REALLY want to learn.

Age? Naw. I didn't put the age correct.
I was so happy with the flatpicking...used my giggle age.

Love it. This flatpicking. Makes me happy, and doing the "Snoopy dance"....(smile)

It's all good.

Nancy, it's quite a change from 3 finger picking or clawhammer 2 finger, isn't it? Takes a while to get used to not having that 5th string as a drone, at least that was my problem when I first started flatpicking.

Have fun, enjoy!

Sherry, you are so right. It's diff.
I am lousy as clawhammer...but do it anyway.
3 finger is better. use to the picks.
I really like the dobro.
I wanted to try this flatpick. Curious. I have 3 books. Starting on page one. Going slow. I like it!
I have a theory. (have a theory about everything, actually) I ONLY compete with Me. Nobody else. So, learning, going slow and being interested is the key for me. This for me is plain fun.

I do think that you are a special person and super mod. You earned that by being on top of what is going on with the Hangouts. Good Job!
