PIMA is an acronym that stands for (P) Thumb (I) Index (M) Middle (A) Ring. It is a 100% proven guide to mastering fingerstyle guitar and is taught in Music Theory courses at some of the best colleges and universities! When working with PIMA, you eliminate the confusion as to which finger to use at any given time and is a perfect template for any guitarist that is interested in moving past the basics of fingerstyle guitar.
