    really, that depends who you are though, and what kind of music you’re planning to play. If you’re not really solo intensive, I’d just go with one or two basic scales. If you are solo intensive, I’d try to do as many as I could. It helps as well because it limbers the fingers up :3

    @ZebraDog7
    For me it teaches where notes can be found, so when I have a tune in my head, I’ll hopefully one day be able to play.

    @ZebraDog7
    Well, I was looking around actually and I noticed it was mostly the Pentatonic scales that go together well, I really haven’t tested enough to say all the scales work as nicely as the E minor

    @ZebraDog7
    Relatively new guitarist here too. I just noticed something.

    Any combination of the notes on the scale sound awesome together. They seem to flow and work nicely together, try it.

    @ssens lool the stick is called a “pick”. playing with fingers is like having 4-5 picks (depending if you use your thumb or not) since you can use the fingers independently at different speeds or at the same time. you can perform more complex stuff with fingers (e.g. improvising on a scale and slurring …you can even play bass+melody at the same time if you’re really good) ;D lool…me i’m bollocks so i couldn’t do that…that’s why i’m on this vid i guess :( & great tutorial

    you can use your fingernails instead of a plectrum to do alternate picking

    I don’t think either plucking or picking is “better”.

  24. xTwitterpated Says:

    Alternate picking …
    Alternate picking is a technique used only with a plectrum right? So if I’m playing with my fingers I’m not supposed to use it?
