Is using your thumb to fret bass notes on a guitar a sloppy habit?
I’m learning “I cross my heart” and it’s all finger picking. The guy in the video frets some of the bass notes with his thumb. I’m wondering if that’s going to lead me to have a sloppy left hand position on the guitar.
well… both jimi hendrix and srv both used to wrap their thumb around the necks of their guitar when playing… its common in blues guitar… as far as on bass is concerned.. it may not look all that pretty, but if it gets the job done then it works…. i do sometimes if i’m playing just on my lowest string to givge my wrist a break
