Pick Accuracy Exercise

guitar beginner

In this lesson

Do you need help hitting the right strings on your guitar, especially when playing rhythm? It's a problem EVERY guitar player faces, and the only way to get better is to isolate the problem and work on it. This is an exercise I invented when I was learning to play rhythm, and it does an incredible job helping you become a more clean and accurate guitar player!

    My fingers know it but my brain doesn't yet — I can't play it without the tab in front of me. How do you all commit these to memory?

    I had that exact problem. Turned out my thumb was anchoring in the wrong spot.

    Answered over in the tab thread too, but short version: play what's comfortable, the tab is a map not a law.
