Ever since I started playing, I've noticed that a lot of instructional books teach the PIMA method (P=thumb, I=first finger, M=middle finger, A=ring finger). But I've always found it faster, easier and far more comfortable to play with the fingers the other way around...thumb on bass, ring finger on G, index finger on B and first finger on E.
I know I'm not the only one who plays like this, and I've even noticed on Martin acoustic guitar string packs that there's a photo of a guitar being played the way I do it. So who here prefers the PIMA, and who prefers PAMI?
