Ready to move beyond strumming? Learning a more expressive style of accompaniment using a flatpick is within your reach with the right tools and a bit of work. Solo flatpicking is applicable to Folk, Bluegrass, Singer/Songwriter, and Americana musical styles. The use of bass movement, crosspicking, rolls, melodic passages, and syncopation will allow you to use the guitar for accompaniment as well as solo instrumentals. Bring a recording device!
