This article is a waste of space. Any use of plectrum allows a player a choice of articulations. Down picking is but one way to achieve the musical objective of accentuation. It hardly merits its own article. RichardJ Christie 06:52, 22 August 2007 (UTC)Reply

I agree, this is barely even a technique and the article doesn't really make any sense from a good guitarist's point of view. 86.16.127.251 (talk) 15:29, 20 December 2009 (UTC)Reply

"Speed" of picking "Master of Puppets"

edit

212 beats per minute means 212 beats (=strokes) / 60 seconds = 3,5 strokes per second, not 7. The actual speed of the song is 106 BPM as it is written in 4/4 tact and BPM refers to the 1/4 notes. 147.161.255.103 (talk) 08:40, 4 June 2024 (UTC)Reply
