RezN8 said:Many guitarists think that way and I really have to disagree - the strumming hand is actually much more important IMHO. In most situations, you're merely fretting a chord, while the strumming hand is doing all the work.
Depends on the style. There is much fingerpicking and classical where the fretting hand is at least as tricky as the picking hand. You will have a repeated picking pattern, your picking hand goes on autopilot, and your fretting hand has to do all the thinking.
