In this Q&A session, I tackled something many of you struggle with – finding the right thumb position when fretting. Your thumb doesn’t always need to stay behind the neck! I showed how to adjust it for different chords to get proper leverage without strain. We also covered everything from smoother up strums to making those pentatonic scales musical instead of just running them mechanically. I even shared my favorite guitars and what I use them for. Whether you’re just starting out or you’re more experienced, I hope you’ll find something here to make your playing more enjoyable.
This month I forgot to do the drawing during the show so I did it just after and sent the winner, Diane Welter, her Amazon gift card. Congratulations Diane. You are awesome!
Let’s do it again next month:
