    Very nice improv @Niels 👏👏👏 Yes, those lighter gage strings are much easier to bend for sure – but you still have to know what you’re doing to come up with what you played👍👍 I enjoyed listening (and watching) as always🤩

    Hi @Moonhare , I was using Fender (medium & heavy) but constantly fighting with pick rotation. Then I came across D’Andrea PRO PLEC (1.5 mm). It’s a smidge narrower than the Fender, but it has a textured side that I use against my thumb and helps to keep the pick from rotating. So I think the key is to find picks that have a texture on them that you can feel which will help you grip it much better – I know they’re out there – you just have to go find them😎

    Hi @Dirk_R , since the new system has been implemented, the 3 videos have vanished (I believe for to create more sever space). So now we just have the icon where we can control the speed. I haven’t tested it myself, but I think you can use the 1.5x speed for the 3 to 0 count down and the 2x speed for the 1 to 0 count down. Or, you could play the video at normal (1x) speed and wait until the count reaches 3, then start to fret the chords – and the same with waiting for the count to reach 1.

    Hi @Cisco , Today’s Speed Challenge is definitely a way to build finger strength👍 You don’t have to match the speed, just doing 4 hammer-ons and pull-offs in a row with each finger and repeating the pattern on each string is a heck of a work-out in itself😎
