3. The Crab Pinch Method

It’s exactly what it sounds like. You’ll learn how to pinch a variety of strings (just like a crab) using your thumb (T) and 1st (1) finger. You can actually get through almost any basic song using the crab pinch method – and I use it any and every time I possibly can. It’s a slight step up from just using your thumb, but it’s actually quite simple.
