Make a list of your top 5 favorite steel players, and check to see if they used fingerpicks. If the answer is yes and you would like to sound like them, consider getting used to fingerpicks.

I used a tiny little Jerry Byrd sized bar even on my 10 stringers. John Pease makes good ones, I believe they call it the "hawaiian" size. Little bars are more nimble and offer more precise slants. Plus they're easier to fit up ur butt when you need to smuggle em through tsa. Don't fear a ...
