I am a lefty and right also but I play right handed. I love Stevie Nicks and all Fleetwwod Mac The Dixie chicks have a version that is easy too play try it out. I have watched a lot of fingerpickers out there and you will notice some will use fingers only or with long nails or with thumb/finger picks. I simply use my fingers,and hover above the chords and pick,sometimes you will have too learn a solo which always takes time. Some times you can lay in a fully strummed chord. Afew good ones to try are CCR Down on the corner, Garth Brooks I got friends in low places. Creams version of Crossroads ( you can play this like Clapton would have if he did it unplugged and you can do it slow blues fashion.You should put this post in your subscribed area so we will not lose it.

Re: lowering the action on a Takamine gn93 with a split saddle. (7 replies, posted in Acoustic)
Welcome to Chordie Ali!!!!!
Happy NGD as well.
If your new guitar plays well then why mess with it? If you really want to lower the action, but are inexperienced at doing so, I would take it to someone who knows how.
As far as the strings go, try it and see. There should be no ill affects of using elec strings on your acoustic. They will definitely sound different because they are made of diff materials. "Play better"? That's up to you to decide. "Deeper sound"? I doubt it. Just remember to stay within a gauge up or down of what you currently have now. Otherwise you will need a setup done.
ditto!! I use electric on my tak. and yamaha and they sound the same too me.

Re: chords request for rosemary by suzanne vega (18 replies, posted in Song requests)
Hi k. Ihave been real busy,I will try too get too my guitar later today or tommarow and I hope I can find my capo. As for fingerpicking I do not know what kind of music you play or much on how long you have played that would help me know what songs too start you out with. You could also take a look at James Taylors free youtube lessons on picking ( he is not easy) . But a great picker, are you playing acoustic?
