Does it depend a lot on the speakers, or is the cab itself just shitty?

I've heard that the 4x12s are good, but...

Thoughts on the 2x12s? Specifically, what kind of speakers are in them?

I personally enjoy fingerpicking more on an acoustic (unless it's strictly chord progressions, in which case I strum too). If it's on an electric, I'll only use a pick. Might look into hybrid picking one of these days.

To actually answer the question, no, I don't think every guitarist should know how to do it, but it couldn't hurt to look into it and give it a shot, just for the sake of expanding your skillset.
