Practising Fingerpicking

Fingerpicking is probably one of the most difficult things to be able to perfect on guitar. Here are a few tabs from the worlds first guitar virtuoso, Mauro Giulaini!

Fingerpicking is probably one of the most difficult things to be able to perfect on guitar. Here are a few tabs from the worlds first guitar virtuoso, Mauro Giulaini!

"Allegro" - A simple peice for getting your fingers in shape.

"Maestoso" - A lot harder.

"Study in E Minor" - Quite easy. Just chords up and down the neck with a simple fingerpicking technique.

Another artist worth mentioning is Tommy Emmanuel. It's only worth trying to play his songs if your good enough at your fingerpicking. Another useful thing to have is Guitar Pro. Get if off a mate or buy it (you WON'T regret it!). If you are having trouble with them play them slow as you can first and then build up speed........here we go........

"Borsalino" - A beautifully happy song. Quite hard to perfect but once you get the hang of it you'll never stop playing it!

"Blue Moon" - Same as the Blue Moon we are all familiar with but Emmanuallized! Fairly easy (Tommy standards!)

"Luttrell" - Luttrell, Luttrell, Luttrell.....This is allmost imposible! I have been playing this for a good while now and I still miss bits! Give it a try...

Guitar Pro (All I could find):

"Day Tripper/Lady Madonna" - This song has you playing the rhythm and lead at the same time. Great Beatles song. Breaks into "Lady Madonna" at the end. Absolutly crazy stuff.

After all that thumb picking you'd want either a good blister cream or invest in a good thumb pick!

Well thats all! Hope you have many happy days playing this stuff!
