Hopkins' distinctive style was shaped by countless hours spent playing informally without a backing band. His finger picking technique allowed him to play bass, rhythm, lead, and even percussion simultaneously, creating a rich, full sound. His approach incorporated both "alternating" and "monotonic" bass lines, as well as chromatic turnarounds and single-note leads. He often tapped or slapped the body of his guitar to add percussive rhythm.
