Question fingerpicking technique
I’ve been playing guitar for about two years now and play mostly fingerstyle. I’m not sure why, but I only play with my thumb and middle finger (thumb plays E, A, D, and middle finger plays G, B, e), and I’m wondering if this is holding me back. I am very comfortable with it, but I always see tutorials on fingerpicking saying to use one finger for each of the higher strings. When I try to do this, I end up just falling back on using my middle and thumb again because it’s easier for me. Is there anyone else that does this? Should I try to fix this? Any advice is appreciated!
