I hear ya Paule. Having a similar experience, where I’m not a straight up beginner but going through the skill courses seems to be helping. However, I’m feeling like I should be doing the daily challenges now but today with the walking baseline had me thinking that I’m forgetting some of the earlier stuff too that was preparing me for the daily challenges. I’m using the favorites, but then find myself wanting to do better at what was already shown (the stuff that Tony talks about). Trying to trust the process and I am seeing progress. I may not be on here daily, but I am picking up the guitar daily. I guess I’m saying try not rush it, that’s what I’m telling myself.

I’m seeing a similar thing but mine I think is realizing that my pinkie is quite short compared to my other fingers. I never really noticed it until trying to do some of the scales on the low E string and spanning 4 frets. I may have to just adapt? I can’t seem to straighten the pinkie out and wants to curve like in your picture Mike. We’ll see if time and exercises help these older fingers from years of keyboard smashing at work. CAD work can be brutal on your digits.

I’m thinking about the Portal Extra Large Quick Folding Tripod Stool with Backrest Fishing Camping Chair with Carry Strap on Amazon for $35. Reason being I’ve been practicing at my car during lunch and need something compact. Might give it a try. No armrest, has pocket for my phone and lightweight. For lunchtime could be good.
