No. If you want to fingerpick, jump in and start fingerpicking. I'd get a good teacher in your area and have them show you stuff that you know you like. Playing stuff you really like pulls you forward motivation-wise, and makes you much more self-correcting because you really know what each phrase is supposed to sound like. That said, just for the record, studying just a little beginning classical guitar is the best fingerstyle entry point possible in my opinion, no matter what style you really want to play. Decades of teaching, and just listening to what's out there, I hear some much instrumental fingerstyle on steelstring in particular that sounds more like accompaniment than something that stands on it's own. Classical guitar gets you thinking about getting that melody to really pop out front more... It's a great way to learn about tone, projection, dynamics, technique.. etc |

Ok thanks for the clarification. I tried using rest strokes with picks but combined with the narrower steel string spacing I can't really make it work and stay in control.
Totally agree with you on using dynamics to bring out a melody, not all notes are equally important so why play them all at the same volume? |
