How many finger picks do you guys use?

[John Bechtel]

I used (3) finger-picks back in the early ’50's when I first started playing a 10-str. Eddie Alkire EHArp. But, I noticed that if I tried to play PSG with (3)-finger picks I was playing too many full chords where only 1 or 2 or 3 notes together sounded more pleasing to the ear! (cleaner) It's was almost like playing Chord-Melody! The EHArp Chromatic-Tuning makes (3) fingers almost required equipment!

Been using 3 fingers and a thumb for many years. However I'm not tuned to E9 either. Probably could only control 2 fingers with that tuning.
