This is my first posting on Chordie. I started teaching myself last year and I have learned to down strum with my thumb and up with my index finger. I would really like to get a louder sound by using a pick but I cant seem to change patterns with a pick. I know that practice will help and I should go get some real lessons. Should I get a thumb pick or a thin flat pick? Should I learn to fingerpick or to flatpick? Is there a site that shows different strumming patterns, I have dial up so youtube will not work for me. Is there any books that will help me develop my technique? I can not read music. Thanks.
