I thoroughly enjoyed Devin’s lessons on hybrid picking. I too do not like having a thumb pick and have always shied away from it.  I feel that the Hybrid technique works perfectly for me. I have just learned another concept from Devin that will last me for ever. Many thanks for your website. It has been invaluable to me. I hope you folks down in Texas start warming up now. We get that Arctic vortex in Canada too and it is very difficult to deal with
