Hi Barry. On a recent popular guitar podcast, I heard that Joe Pass switched to playing exclusively with his fingers later in his career. Can you confirm that? If it's true, do you know why he did it?
Yes, that is true. He did it because it gave him the independence in his right hand as well as a warmer tone. That was more important to him than being able to play single lines with a pick. An absolute legend of the guitar. Thanks!
Fascinating. Thanks, Barry.
