The fingerpicker I set on a pedestal, when I was a kid was Paul Simon.
I read an article once where he said, he approached the guitar like a piano.
Have played allot of his music over the years.
What I could not stress enough is practice, practice, practice.
Once you get the bassline down smooth, the rest will fall into place fairly easily.
But it does take repetition. Allot of repetition.
And yes, a metronome is a good idea.
Especially if you are used to not worrying about timing so much.
And check out different chord inversions.
