Fingerpicking on the guitar sounds (and looks) harder than it is. If you're willing to take a few minutes to get each component, putting it all together takes very little time. You can do it! This is the two-finger Travis Pick, based on the style of legendary guitar player/singer/songwriter Merle Travis (1917--1983). I believe Travis usually used 2 fingers, but it is easy (and fun) to add another finger (or two). 0:00 Intro 0:22 Left hand 0:1:15 Step 1--Thumb 0:3:45 Step 2--Index Finger G String 0:5:51 Step 3--Index Finger B String 0:10:12 Bonus--Double G's
