Nice video, bro! Do you down pick all of the bass notes during the Travis picking? Ever since I started getting into country I've been training myself to alternate pick as much as possible. But maybe it makes the bass notes in the Travis picking sloppier?
Got it. Really, I can do the picking patterns a lot cleaner and faster using just thumb and fingers. But it's a lot cooler with pick and fingers. And you don't have to stop and grab your pick to do everything else.

Emphasis on the downstrokes and make sure you Palm mute them , otherwise the melody notes run into them …. Result is no definition and one giant mess.
All bass notes are down picked my friend.
