Wipe Out

[surferjay]

Hi,

I just have a quick question in regards to Wipe Out and finger picking in general. I understand that it’s best to use 3 finger picking (plus thumb) so there is a finger allocated to each string.

However, it’s faster and easier to pick the strings in Wipe Out with the first two fingers (even though they are allocated to different strings).

So my question is should I be keeping to the best practice of using the second and ring finger for the strings in Wipe Out or can I use the fingers which are most comfortable… I do want to improve I just don’t want to be the only one sticking to the best practice like a stickler when it’s not what people do.. haha.

Any help appreciated…

Totally fine to do! That’s like a picado approach.
