Hi guys,
I'm learning guitar by myself, and had started out fingerpicking songs. I went on to learn how to strum using a pick but I never got the hang of picking string using the pick (i.e. techniques like alternate picking)
Q1)When I try it picking strings with the pick, my little finger always tries to be in contact with the guitar (so it's grounded so to speak and the right hand is not in the air) so that I feel I can more accurately pick the right string...is this the wrong way to go? Or should my right hand be not touching the guitar at all?
Q2) Also, any tips on alternate picking?
