Lick Library: Ultimate Guitar - Hybrid Picking Techniques

Hybrid Picking is an exciting technique that utilises regular picking combined with other fingers of the picking hand. This allows more speed and fluidity for many licks, runs and phrases. Complex rhythm styles can be executed with greater ease and some rhythm pieces simply cannot be played without it.

Top country players like Albert Lee to hot rockers such as Steve Vai have studied this technique and have added many cool licks and phrases to their repertoire. Join Stuart Bull in a lesson of hybrid picking and see how this can work for you too.
