hi Austin. It took me a while to start getting finger picking. I played with a pick for a long time. The hardest part for me is getting the bass line to sound crisp without a pick. I finally bit the bullet and grew my nails which helped a lot. Also with fingerpicking I have found that I have to change my strings much more often since I don't have the pick to compensate for the strings getting dull. There are players of all levels here so between Kirk and the rest of us, we should be able to give you any info you need.
