Thanks guys.
You are of course correct – practice, practice, practice and some more practice… 🙂
I did notice one thing. When I was a teenager I fell into the trap of having the palm of my hand on the back of the neck. It should be my thumb.
I do have large hands and at the time I probably thought they were too big and thus took a shortcut (or what I thought was a shortcut) and played that way for too long.
Having my thumb on the back is not comfortable but from what I’ve read it should become normal and will be correct and comfortable. It will also help a lot with finger position.
I’m going through Justin Guuitar’s website (slowly) and finding it really good. I’ll get the book soon too.
Thanks for all the help so far from everyone – it’s really appreciated.
Other guitarists, be it learner or experienced, please feel free to jump on here, I love seeing your guitars, hearing your riffs and general guitar stuffs.
Cheers
