Acrylic Nails?
I play those weird percussive/fingerstyle/tappy-type techniques. I hate–HATE–fingerpicks (they catch on the strings) and my fingernails are wearing out too fast. I've kinda run out of options, so...
Should I just go for acrylic nails? I've heard some really nasty "war stories" about what happens with acrylic nails and how they're "the worst decision [some random guitarist] ever made". On the other hand, many very well known players (I'm thinking of Kaki King and Tony McManus here) use acrylic nails.
Should I? Personal experience/stories more than welcome.
