    Is there a jam track for this at a slower tempo? 90 is still a bit quick for me.

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

    There's a slower track in the resources for this one. If you want it slower still, let me know and I'll cut one.

    Try it without the pick for a few passes. Sounds silly but it told me my right hand was doing too much.

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