Stop hand
The stop hand (also picking hand ) is while playing plucked from the family of sounds - for example, guitars , mandolins , banjos and 'Ukulelen - the hand with which the strings of musical instruments are vibrated. For right-handers this is usually the right hand, for left-handers the left hand. The attack is done either with the bare fingers (for example, with a support strike or fingerpicking ) or with a pick . There are also touch techniques that are performed with the gripping hand on the fingerboard of the instruments - such as so-called tapping .
