    Ben, this one finally made the timing click for me. Been fighting it for a month. Thank you.

    The pinky thing goes away, I promise. Took me about three months.

    Recording yourself is humbling but it's the fastest fix I've found.

    Metronome at 60 and no faster until it's clean twice through. Boring but it works.

    There's a slower jam track under the resources tab on this lesson, worth grabbing.

    Glad it clicked! That timing is the whole point of this lesson, so if that landed you got what you came for.
