    finger picking with nails makes your guitar playing sound 1000x more skillful no matter if you play exactly the same.
    As someone who has a nail biting habit but wants to grow out his nails I'm jealous of everyone who has nails :(

    Nails just make playing so much easier - and they open up so many more tunes which would be impossible by pick alone. There's nothing more mesmerising than hearing yourself easily playing what was a fiendishly difficult fingerpicking song only a few days ago on automatic pilot a few days later.

    • @seandaniel23

    Most of my playing is with a thumb pick and fingernails. I use an acrylic nail on the i-m-a fingers of my picking hand. About every three weeks I go to a nail shop to have them filled. Only about $10. I have been doing this for years and have never broken a nail while playing although I have broken a couple doing other work. It's a quick easy fix. FYI, James Taylor does not use acrylic nails but rather a fiber glass wrap. He has a UA-cam video on the subject. I have spoken with Lawrence Juber and Tommy Emanuel and they both cut their nails very short and play with the thick calloused pad they have developed on their respective right hands. They both say it's a lot of work to keep their callouses in playing shape.

    I Definitely get self conscious in my work environment when I grow my nails long. But I love playing with my nails on my steel string. Just strumming with nails really let's you manipulate the sound, and start throwing in some alternating base patterns. I normally cut both sides fairly short once my left hand because difficult to play.

    I have finger picked for years and could never grow a finger nail long enough. They always broke just before they got prefect.

  • @ronlight7013
    @ronlight7013 8 років тому +11

    So for those of us common folk with steel string guitars and basic 12-bar blues inclinations, fingerpicking blues guitar doesn't generally make use of nails? Just flesh? Your man Andres has a wonderfully dry sense of humor, Guitar Center and 13 year-old guys not withstanding.

    • @jgrossma
      @jgrossma 6 років тому

      Steel strings quickly wear out nails. For that reason most fingerstyle steel string players either use fingerpicks or just fingers, no nails. None of the famous old blues guys played with nails. Today there are players who use synthetic nails on steel, including James Taylor, but if you want to go that route, realize that fake nails are relatively high maintenance.

  • @KKMDStyle
    @KKMDStyle 3 роки тому +1

  • @jgrossma
    @jgrossma 6 років тому +1

    Obviously, if you're using a flatpick you don't need nails. Although there are individual exceptions, the overwhelming majority of professional or serious performers of classical and flamenco guitar use nails. Nails give you better attack/clarity, better volume, and better control over tone. Its difficult to execute tremolo without nails. If you're playing nylon, and can do so, you should be using nails. If you're fingerpicking with steel you should consider either no nails, just thumbpick, or thumb and fingerpicks. Although you "can" use nails on steel, they won't last long, and the ones who do this invariably use synthetic nails for durability. That includes the Nashville/Country guys who do hybrid (flatpick and finger) picking. A lot of those guys end up with synthetic nails on the right hand.

      Paul Murray no one "can". It's not easy. It takes a lot of practice but if you want a crisp, rich tone, a good tone, you will need to learn to play with your fingernails. It's about how well you want to play, you decide wether you learn to do it or not.

    Acrylics worked great for me, but I had two major problems -- freaky discoloration and nail fungus -- and they virtually destroyed my nail beds. I had to wait a yr. for my nails to not only grow out but to strengthen as well.

      @jerrylanglois7892 7 років тому

      Yea, it's a little bit of a hassle having to get them filled every two weeks or so but I'm willing to tolerate that inconvenience -- but the problems I stated discouraged me from continuing with the acrylics. I have to admit however, they work wonderfully -- great attack, tone, control, volume, and they're virtually indestructible. I'm still entertaining the thought of going back to them.

    So does nobody else strum with their fingernails as well? Whenever I watch videos like this they only talk about picking with their fingernails. I do that too, but I also strum with my fingernails.
    Also, is there advantage to using a pick? I can't use one, it feels awkward and I can't play anything if I use a pick. Is there any reason I should try to become comfortable using a pick?

    • @seandaniel23
      @seandaniel23  7 років тому +1

      Just depends on your goals really. Like if you want to play metal or shred stuff, you're best off learning to use a pick because IMO it's easier to build that kind of speed with.

    It's a misconception with beginners that the string is played only with nail. It is. It's nail and flesh. Generally, Nails should be filed in a ramp like shape. Look up Pumping nylon for proper shape.

      Un Dia De Noviembre - Brouwer (this one's a little harder but super pretty).
      Your best bet would be to learn how to read sheet music and find a teacher. Technique is really important for classical guitar so taking at least a few lessons would really help you get started.

    • @kelalliovatti
      @kelalliovatti 8 років тому +2

      don caviness might want to consider ramping your thumb nail, a lot of people ramp all their nails. this is essentially filing your nail at an angle so that the string 'ramps' up the nail as you pick it. the ramp of your thumb nail would angle up toward your pointer finger (since you attack the string downward).

      I think he's just playing around over a few chords.

    WHAT ?? James Taylor uses acrylic nails ?? Check his tutorials on nails , mate .... You'll find out that his uses a type of fibreglass fabric hardened with an epoxy type solution (not resin) .... Hardly acrylic nails !!

    • @seandaniel23
      @seandaniel23  7 років тому

      I guess I just meant an artificial nail. Like I said, def not an expert on the names :)

      Sean Daniel then again , anybody fingerpicking for a couple of hours a day uses some kind of trick ... Only a very, very few have been genetically gifted with nails that can take the battering of long practices ... human nails are just simply not meant to do that...

      I often remember the melody but not the name. If it's the same with him them then it's not that he didn't recognize the song but just couldn't recollect the name.

    My right index nail is fucked .. won’t grow out .. has a weird low spot making the edge grow upward and my nails delaminate from psoriasis :(
    I use super glue and dip my nail in baking soda twice to build up a fake nail then a quick pass with sand paper ,emery board or the side walk to keep the top and edge from catching on the strings.. takes 2 mins lasts at least a day or two.. prolly making it worse but I can play my gig without any pain .. thinking about an acrylic.. but this works .
