I’ve been right handed for 60 years, but when it comes to finger picking it’s like I’m trying to use someone else’s fingers.

You look like a proper metal or alternate picking type of guitarist, styles which are worlds apart, my greatest challenge is mastering the alt picking style while finger picking seems more natural for me

⁠@@ivanfigurin6795finger style is overwhelming to someone who’s never done it, so he’s just illustrating how to pluck with your picking hand for the person who uses a pick. This style is alien to most guitar players. Classical music is the most basic way to show this; jazz and math rock/midwest emo is a little more complicated lol

I love these basic fingerstyle lessons. Keep them coming!

Fantastic melody. I'm a total beginner. I have had an acoustic guitar for 1 week and once I learn the basics and chords I want to learn it. It is beautiful. It sounds wonderful on both classical and acoustic guitar. You made my day. I'll have this tune in my head for the rest of the day (or at least a good part of it).

This is how I learned to play songs and compose new ones on my nylon string acoustical Guild. Fingertips, no nails. So many patterns, and of course combining picking with strumming, and all the things that make it fun. I only play my work for myself, sometimes I share. It's more therapeutic than performance.

Thank you for the beautiful and calming progression and picking lesson 🙏🏾

I've been trying fingerstyle until I saw Ur channel.. appreciate thanks..

Marco, thank you for all your teaching videos, it is amazing and very educational and the SOUND is beautiful. I love watching and learning from your videos, keep it coming, and again, thank you, thank you. I hope you have a wonderful day. Mai (Thailand)

Great video Marco, I've learned a lot of new things to spice up my guitar playing. Thank you.

I LOVE receiving new content and lessons…a highlight to a day.

Great video! There is something about fingerpicking that sounds so magical and dynamic 💯🎸

It's a really captivating exercise and sounds soothing to the ear. I liked the still strings ☺️

Thank you for sharing this incredible guitar skill , love it so much .

I've had a classical guitar for a while now but have only been practicing some fun riffs for a while, finally decided to give fingerstyle a try thanks for the vidd

You are the most coolest teacher. Thanks a lot for all the lessons. I appriciate that.

Well organized, well structured, well presented… 🙏🏻

Beautiful ❤️.. such a lovely fingerstyle music

Marco, thanks for sharing your talent. Awesome talent my friend!

Great video! I just started guitar and decided to learn fingerstyle after learning the basic chords. Loved the patterns here and will definitely be using this to practise!

Thank you, lovely tutorial 💙

I always wanted to learn finger style, thanks for your videos.

Worth watching lesson... Gonna try in my acoustic

Hello Marco from the US. I'm already at this stage in my playing but I like visiting your channel. Even though I'm already at this level, I take away something fresh from you every time. If people took the time to go through your lessons, they would get much better than most guitar players out there and very quickly. Well done and thank you. I'm tragically broke at the moment, but when I can, I will support you and your channel. I have a handful of teachers online I learn from, and you're one of them, that I'm going to repay as soon as I can. You add benefit to the world, my brother.

All of them teach, not only chords and scales but they share philosophies and life lessons learned along their journeys. Who are you following that really gets you excited?

Your talent amazes me. ❤

Thank you for sharing this tutorial👍🌿

Brother Marco, thanks you for your finger picking videos, I know that your fan base has already drowned you with thanks, but I have learned so much from you, looking forward to see you hit the Big 1Million, Peace Be Unto You.

Marco, I always enjoy your lessons. It seems you have the same problem that I have been battling all my life which is a scratching sound from the fingernail of the index finger when it's used on a wound string. Glad to know I'm not the only one. 🐸

thanks so much for your lesson. love from dallas

I've been playing for about a year and decided to start learning finger-style/picking. Thanks for this video! This is a great piece that I can incorporate into my routine. I signed up on your Patreon so that I could download the guitar tab.

tysm for the tutorial. although i used to play fingerstyle but realised i was doing it in a different way than this. okay so, can you please tell me if i need to have bigger nails on my index, middle and ring finger as well? i actually tried playing with fingertips without nails but the sound was pretty.... warm and less bright. it didnt sound too good. what do i do?

Ciao Marco! After watching this video, I went and purchased your program “Practical Fingerstyle”. However, after the third stage, the lessons became a little too classical for my taste. Do you have any programs about “cool exercises” like this that aren’t extremely hard to play, but they sound awesome? Thank you

No way I have the exact same guitar as yours- This is gonna be very interesting :o

Bro ! I play pima, learned different chromatic scales, penta-scales but the melody had been the big issue, but this video was just a boom. If you can make a video on chords over melody ( a simple one)

Wooow I like What you Do Bruh

Awesone... 👍🏻

you are AMAZING! Do you have any online classes?

100% Marco. Less is more! Wonderful touch and tone.

Hi Marco, thanks for your great work! Hope you don't mind a somewhat off topic question... in your produced videos, you switch back and forth between a talking + holding the guitar view and a close up on the fretboard view. My question is "Are you using two cameras, are you recording twice with the same camera, or something else?" Thanks!

Hallelujah! Any secret chords? Nice lesson.

Please more classical guitar lessons. Thank you

How do i know the base note to be played for each chord? Like for F i see base was 4th string but for A it was the 5th. Is there a rule of thumb or i have to look up the base for every chord?

And if by "base note" you meant to say "bass note", in most basic chords the root note is the bass note ;-)

How to use more than one finger for finger picking

Excellent tutorial. If you had added the chord charts when you start the finger picking from 6:12 onwards that would have been helpful but then it was smart not to do so as it forces beginners to commit the chords and sequence to memory before focusing on the finger style.
