In this video I dive deep into alternate picking for bluegrass guitar, what it is, why it's so important and how to practice it. Incorrect alternate picking and bad technique is responsible for so many frustrations for students I work with. It can limit your, speed, tone, accuracy and overall enjoyment with flatpicking. All of the best players of bluegrass use alternate picking from Tony Rice to Billy Strings, Molly Tuttle, David Grier, Clarence White and beyond!


Hopefully I can help you get better at bluegrass 🙏
