    Anyone interested in or practicing fingerstyle? I'm getting into it now and been at it a few weeks. Just seeing if anybody else influenced by Chet, Tommy etc.

    Try Classical Gas, it's a good song for fingerstyle!!

    Elixir Strings, Expensive but they won't shred your fingers.

    That said, I've taken a shine to Martin FX Silk Wound Strings.

    Basically a Metal Core, Wrapped in Silk that is then wrapped in Phosphor Bronze.

    My Fingers are no longer sore.
