              Great tone and technique, Mike. Well done, as always. Interesting video configuration.

                Sounds great Mike. Not easy transferring from fingers to pick or visa versa. Love the monochrome look too. All the best! 😎🎸😎

                  Very nicely done Mike.

                  I am equally comfortable with both ways of playing but, speaking for myself, I usually prefer the more direct attack on the strings with a pick on electric guitars. On the other hand, fingers can sound better for a more subtle mellower sound. All down to personal taste of course 😋
