===Pick tapping=== Some guitarists may choose to tap using the sharp edge of their [[plectrum|pick]] instead of fingers to produce a faster, more rigid flurry of notes closer to that of trilling, with a technique known as pick tapping or pick trilling. Using the pick enables faster speeds by means of 'vibrating' (or effectively seizing up) the wrist Guitarists such as [[Joe Satriani]] and [[John 5 (guitarist)|John 5]] Lowery have been known to use it, with Lowery nicknaming it a "Spider-Tap".
