It's too much. Take a taste instead...Paul Simon..everything he did. My favorite to drive thi point home is blackbird by the Beatles. Finger picking was the original implication and arpeggios took over. Know this, finger picking sounds better. Learn a pattern and practice it. There was a study done (prolly lots by now) that proves we improve almost as much mentally practicing as we do practicing. I used to practice the picking pattern of Blackbird on my desk in the 8th grade over and over. I don't know the technical aspects of music (like most of the stuff in this thread) but do you think these guys are better than me at it. (Don't take that as a challenge because it really isn't). The point I'm trying to make is knowing the science won't make it sound better. It's another tool to help you practice. Only practice will make it sound better. You stated you didn't think you could keep it up for every sone you play...if you really feel that wy, you are correct. Practice and it shall be.
