Pick pointers with bluegrass master Gary Brewer of the Kentucky Ramblers
- JIMMY LESLIE
Thick and Thin

TALK SHOP WITH Gary Brewer for a few minutes and one thing rings clear as a bell: There is rhyme and reason behind everything on his mind. And that mind is full of wisdom acquired over more than four decades playing bluegrass professionally, as well as know-how handed down from his dad and his grandfather, whose tenure in the original Carter Family band dates back to the early '20s. When GP went deep with Brewer on his new acoustic guitar concept project, House of Axes (see page 68), he went into the weeds on playing with a pick. Here, we share his knowledge and advice on the subject.
