Ricardo -> RE: Picado technique of Antonio Reyes (Apr. 7 2015 17:25:01)

quote:
ORIGINAL: Dudnote I was just reading through the "Ruben Diaz must stop" thread and on page 1 was struck by a technique point in the Antonio Reyes video. He pushes his thumb down SO HARD!!! The E string is brought into contact with the A. What does he gain from putting that much tension into his thumb? depending on scale length of the guitar and position of fingers for tone, and where you push with thumb, the string may bend more or less. Meaning, if the scale length is shorter and the thumb is closer to the soundhole, the string will necessarily give more than if the thumb and hand is closer to the bridge and the guitar is longer scale. Hope that makes sense.
