Yes, had the same sense. Getting better as my calluses build up. Mine are getting there but still breakdown while playing. Thank you!

Thanks everyone, really appreciate the guidance and encouragement. I’m just beginning to build calluses and can only tolerate the pain for 20 minutes or so. Then return for another session, and another. Will implement your suggestions.

Thank you. Placement is pretty exacting or are there sweet spots?

I’m good at pleks. Probably not the technically correct ones tho 😉

I’m definitely tense. Will try the exercises, appreciated. Can’t imagine “thumbless.” Good idea.

Wow, had no idea. Don’t know what strings or quality. Will research or stop at a local shop. Pretty sure my guitar is a beginner setup but good to explore. Open to further suggestions. Thanks.
