| The reality, TGF87, ... ( 4 months ago by 3patm) |
| The reality, TGF87, is that there is no wrong way to play guitar. If Derek thought of guitar like 90% of the hacks that are out there, he would probably play with a pick and we probably wouldnt have such great music to listen to. It is easier to play slide fingerstyle because you have greater muting capabilties. However, i feel that derek plays with his fingers because it makes an easier connection from brain to guitar. A pick would just get in the way! |

| There are a billion ways it seems to finger pick. Personally I like Tommy Emmanuel. He's about as fast as you can get fingerpicking, although he uses a thumb pick. |

| well with slide u dont usually use a pic, it dosent sound as nice, and the strings tend to move to much and smack against the slide and make this horrible sound... |

| Mike Mattison. Been with them a while. I don't think he has other work out. The band said they "found" him singing in a subway on the Gibson Green Room video. Very soulful. |

| I just saw Derek at the Burlington, VT waterfront last night, and Mike M had Laringitis, but we decided he didnt need a singer, cause he really rocked all his songs with some amazing solos. And the encore, Key to the highway had Grace Potter as the singer, it was a gr8 show. |

| Mike sings in a side project called Scrapomatic.....good stuff too. |

| what eoj115 is trying to say is that many slide players prefer to use their fingers because it allows them to employ a different kind of articulation than when you use a pick. |

| when i saw carlos santana at the UFC arena in orlando i had never heard of derek trucks or the derek trucks band. but when derek opened for carlos that night, he blew my mind. dont play much slide guitar so i cant argue with you guys about wether or not a pick or finger picking is better, but i say who cares? its what way works best for you right? i admire derek and i think ill try to learn some slide :) |

| Articulation is ... ( 2 months ago by acsmith1989) |
| Articulation is what separates the good players from the great. While Derek is sticking mainly to the pentatonic blues pattern, his articulation makes his melodies much more interesting and creative. |

| masterful and very good, close your eyes and enjoy. Dont try to put this in a box, as we like to say "Shut up and Listen" |

| I have been playing for about 23 years. Derek is the best slide player I have ever seen hands down. His ability and versatility is unmatched. Vaughan was a better all around player but as far as slide goes, Derek is the best I have ever witnessed. I have watched this young man grow up living here in Florida and he never seems to hit that "wall" we as average guitar players do. He is truely gifted. |

| I agree - his phrasing really transcends into another dimension. Just saw him the other night in Buffalo. I don't think there are really similarities between Vaughan and Trucks to compare them though. Two amazing plays in each of their own rights. |
