On an Electric Guitar, a middle-position humbucker can, but will not necessarily, interfere with a player's picking or strumming movements. The primary consideration is the location (especially the height) of the pick-up itself. Also to be taken into account is the typical positioning of the player's picking/strumming hand.

Will a acoustic guitar work for slow and fast songs?

Very much so. You can play anything on an acoustic guitar and it will sound good, if you play it right. Acoustic guitars can be used for just slow strumming chords, spanish style strumming, finger picking, classical, spanish, Slow acoustic, emo, rock, pop, absolutely anything!! Try it! Get a song that you'd usually play on your electric guitar and then play it on acoustic, and usually also sounds better half a step down! Go on, i dare ya;)


How do you mute a note on the guitar?

You place your picking palm on the bridge while strumming. You want to find the balance between placing your palm in the middle of the picking area and being near the bridge so that you're muting the strings, but there's still some tone coming through.

It doesn't affect tone as much as technique. In general, a thinner pick is good for strumming, while single-note picking, especially with a strong attack or heavier strings or both, needs more plastic.

What company makes the best picks and what thicknesses are best for what?

I personally like Fenders. They only have 3 thicknesses (Thin, Medium, Heavy) as opposed to other companies having gauges, but each thickness is perfect. Thin is for light strumming, not for picking because it's so thin that when you hit a string it slaps against the one above it. Mediums are good all around. They give you good solid strumming, and great picking with a little give. Heavys are just clanky sounding, like metal against metal. When you strum you hear a lot of pick noise. But when you pick it's really loud and punchy. Definetely made for picking. I prefer medium
