Does anyone pluck with two fingers?

Oh, and for speed, don't forget about Hammer On/Hammer Offs. In violin speak, it's called a slur.

You're right that playing fast isn't everything, but its good to be able to play fast and use that technique when it does fit. I can't imagine that using just one finger could ever offer the range of possibilities that two fingers can. But as Brad Johnson says, "I could be wrong." Sorry for stealing your slogan Brad; I'll try not to do that again.

Use one finger and discover the the range. Then switch back and apply both techniques as you like.

When I first started, I played with pretty much only my index finger. I played at my school's dance, and in the last song my finger cramped up and I couldn't move it at all, so I had to finish the song with my middle finger all by itself. Since then I have used 2, but I'm learning how to use 3.
