@speckpgh Welcome to the TAC community. What you outlined is common for many people until they build more muscle memory and learning placement of hands. Keep in mind that the neck of the guitar is angled, but many times we are sliding our hands as if the neck was parallel to the floor. Instead, we have to learn to compensate for the angle of the neck when moving up and down it. Hope having more consciousness of this fact will assist you. Have fun with the 30 days to play!
