This post consists from two parts.
Part One. What is Fingerstyle?
In general Fingerstyle is technique to play guitar.by plucking strings with fingertips or fingernails.
The therm is used to describe modern style to play guitar using Fingerstyle technique as well. This post is more about modern style to play guitar.
Fingerstyle guitar technique allows to play a few at the same moment. So most of Fingerstyle masters play melody and bassline simultaneously, adding chords and tapping guitar body for percussion effects. Probably their motto is: I payed for all guitar so I will use all guitar. Sometimes hard to believe that all sounds were made by using just two hands and one guitar.
