Fingerstyle
Finger style guitar opens wide possibilities of acoustic guitar. Each of fingers is independent and performs its own role. It is a sophisticated technique that allows to play both melody and accompaniment at the same time, which makes a listener think that he hears several musical instruments, and not just one.
This style is originated in the late XIX – early XX century, when black blues guitarists started to imitate piano ragtimes that were popular at that time. The style was both pretty interesting and challenging, the thumb played the role of the left hand when playing on the piano, and the rest of the fingers corresponded to the right hand.
Fingerstyle was used on a nylon (classical) guitar, because playing classical guitar required using a variety of finger techniques. Therefore the current fingerstyle has obvious similarities with playing classical guitar. When using fingerstyle guitarists often use fingerpicks, special mediators, that are put on the fingers, something like artificial nails. This technique is mainly used in bluegrass and country music. Fingerstyle has incorporated a huge number of guitar techniques: tapping, slap, legato, harmonics, hitting the strings and guitar body, the use of “dead” notes etc. Every professional musician has his own set of playing techniques.
I use a simplified version of this style, that is easy to learn for anyone who wants to play his favorite songs on 6-string guitar.
