I always believe there was another movement ... When down stroking a note, And the pick bounces upwards to begin again on another down stroke .. ??

[@GypsyAndJazz]

Not quite sure what you're referring to, but two downstrokes in a row on the same string can be appropriate sometimes and I guess there'd be a kind of bounce there.
Django's playing looks bouncy on the few videos there are of his playing.

Rest stroke is applicable to DADGAD Tuning to play Oud music and other mariachi bouzouki balalaika music and bouzouki music and mandolin. Also in DADGAD Tuning I Think Those Are Possible

[@GypsyAndJazz]

Yes! I also play Oud and have mentioned the similarity in picking style in some of my lessons.

[@Matt-pk6vp]

I come from another guitar style, but this reminds me a lot of Maestro Yngwie Malmsteen. I come from another guitar style, but this reminds me a lot of Maestro Yngwie Malmsteen! Straight alternate picking only on even notes or single string!🤟🏻

[@GypsyAndJazz]

Interesting...

[@robertgregson2299]

But I don't use a pick (finger style) ?

[@GypsyAndJazz]

This is a picking technique. But I have seen guitarists who tried to influenced from that with their fingerpicking

[@alezaba]

My problem with rest stroke is pick noise

[@GypsyAndJazz]

Not quite sure what you mean. Take a look at the How to Hold the Pick video. I hope that helps.

[@GypsyAndJazz]
