Hey Pebber,Thanks for your response. In response to you asking me "clarify which one?" in your video "PB on playing FAST" you describe the Sarod technique saying you like to keep your thumb loose. Do you simply mean a loose or non-rigid thumb in that the exposed thumb joint itself is not locked out but flexed? I see that your thumb stays flexed while playing & it appers that all your pick movement when starting to play the G scale comes strictly from the shaking of your wrist.

We have probably all heard lots of guitarists play fast but out of key in the context of a song. It always get the same feeling I get when I hear nails scraping hard on a chalk board. As guitarists we sometimes spend so much time trying to attain faster and faster picking speeds but music is not...
