As I started to play fingerpicking style more, I found myself growing out my nails on my right hand, to get that crisp, articulate, loud sound I hear from the really nice fingerpickers.
They are starting to feel kind of long, and I wanted to hear everyone's thoughts regarding nail length and kind of your philosophy on nails and the use of them when fingerpicking.
My final question would be what you think is too long for a nail length before it actually hinders your playing. Also would be curious in what you all do regarding nail maintenance - I've got a file that I use to keep them nice and smooth.
