RE: [SurfGuitar101] Trem Picking Technique Tips

Brian Neal (xarxas) - 22 Dec 2001 12:31:06

I haven't really studied it, but I think I do mine from the wrist mostly,
and keep my arm steady.
I have always used a heavy pick...never tried it with a light pick.

Subject: [SurfGuitar101] Trem Picking Technique Tips
Anyone care to share their trem picking "tips"? I wonder if there's
an optimal angle of pick attack, grip on the pick, arm/hand motion,
etc. . . . I've had pretty good results while holding the pick at a
right angle (that is, not tilted), using a firm (not loose) grip on
the pick, and using minimal wrist movement (the motion being
generated from the arm). Of course, like everything else, I think
the biggest benefit comes from "practice, practice, practice".
Just looking for ways to improve my technique - any ideas? Thanks!
