Hey there esteemed colleagues.
In order to expand my horizons and break out of the powerchord+shitty blues scale licks GnR/NY Dolls style rut I've been in for the last, oh, 3/4 decade at least, I've decided to throw down a little dough and get a cheapo (as is par for course if you review my "How Many Guitars Do You Own" post) Ibanez nylon string that seems to have a ton of string spacing and try my hand at classical/fingerstyle. (Spacing seems crucial even though I don't know what I'm doing yet, I got pretty huge mitts.)
I'm already very comfortable in going pickless on a bass, but I kinda expect that it's not the same thing at all. I know there is a wealth of knowledge to cull from you fine folks, so please, lemme know how you'd approach learning fingerstyle on 6-string coming from a strictly pick background.
I've been watching some Youtube "lessons" in preparation, to kinda get a feel, but any tips would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
