Hey guys (and Chris if he sees this, hope he will).
I've been playing electric guitar for... eh... I think like 14 months now. But I've recently been picking up my chemistry teachers classical guitar (best. chem teacher. EVER.) in class and messing around.
But I have a problem. I finger pick much better with nails, but when I try to play electric with long nails I'm really screwed up. So my question is really what should I do? Change the way I hold a pick? Get used to it? Someone I know recommended false nails but exactly where do I find a set of false nails I can take on, off, and use them again that aren't really... well... Girly?
I'm really stumped. I love electric, and I'm really starting to like classical, I've got some cash saved up so I think I may take the plunge and get one soon, but the nail thing is really worrying me.
