It would be nice, but so far we can't even get this one sorted out.

If someone asks "What kind of music do you play?" I don't think answering "flat picking" is a suitable answer. Now whether or not "technique" can be included in the definition of "genre" is another matter. The word "genre" may include different techniques as well as musical styles. Maybe the current reality is that "flatpicking" is equal to "blue grass" in the real world of guitar playing. I'm not about to really know sitting on my behind at home.

Quote: Flatpicking is a term for when a guitarist strikes the strings of a guitar with a standard guitar pick (also called a plectrum). ... Flatpicking can be contrasted to fingerstyle guitar where a guitar player plucks the strings using individual fingers. Quote : Crosspicking is a technique for playing the mandolin or guitar using a plectrum or flatpick in a rolling, syncopated style across three strings. This style is probably best known as one element of the flatpicking style in bluegrass music, and it closely resembles a banjo roll, the main difference being that the banjo roll is fingerpicked rather than flatpicked.

It would seem the term “flat-picking” is used most often as a generic term on this forum for a bluegrass style of playing singular notes.
Until I joined the forum, I had only heard it in reference to that as well. Alternatively, I had zero interest in using my fingers to pluck the guitar until I got much, much older. I just used a pick and called it “playing guitar.”

As Steve Martin once commented about going to France: "It's like they have a different word for everything!"

How 'bout if we all just go play our guitars instead of sitting around here nit-plectrumming the terminology?

But really, who can concentrate on even contemplating playing when it's not clear if levelplectrumming is a genre, a technique, both or neither. I tossed and turned all night. |

I see the term "flatpicking" and I always wonder on which syllable the emphasis is placed. It could affect how one interprets it.
flat-picking = a style of picking flatpick-ing = picking with a flat pick Since I rarely, if ever, use a pick, I tend to not use the term at all. |

So on a different thread they ask who is the most accomplished flatpicker. It appears they have not mentioned one strummer. Most of the names mentioned, if not all, are guitar players who play fiddle tunes amongst other tunes. I am just saying .......

I am not sure what I play.
A cross of Carter Style and Boom-Chicka with a lot of single notes and runs... |
