I’m not familiar with other alternate picking styles. It seems to be universal in my experience. It is the most efficient way to pick and increases speed, and it smooths the sound. You can get so fast it sounds like strumming.

@ZADavid Have you checked out the Skills library yet? Lot’s of other courses besides the daily challenge.

Fantastic win – love when it falls into place!!

Great win @jdtiger . I’m working at fluidity and having scales smooth rather than choppy too. Not an easy feat (especially for smaller hands).

Glad you’re back at it!!

Great job on this song @Michelle-PSL

To preface this comment, I will say I’m crabby on this overcast rainy day … That being said, this is just another thing lost during the new website and one that many looked forward to as part of the TAC membership TAC, it really would have been nice had TAC asked for the member’s input prior to just cutting benefits

My thoughts were along the lines as David Leo’s – Guitar polish or buffing the neck. You could also use some lotion on your hands to condition them, but make sure it is completely absorbed before you play the guitar. Also, loosen your grip on the back of the guitar. That is typically what causes that noise. Other than that, it is something I’ve heard from other players and they just seem to play through it and ignore it.

That was beautifully done @ted_h .

I love this song, and you did a wonderful with it. Your voice is great for this song.

@marquita Loved this – always a joy to watch you play and hear you sing

Hey @rocha1573 – Either position is fine. Do what works for you.

@ZADavid I feel ya on the downfalls of the new site. It is way too slow and getting signed out constantly is a hassle. I also agree that I haven’t seen a vast improvement on the speed, and it sounds like that’s a huge challenge to TAC and the IT folks. The old site was more user friendly with regard to both speed, staying signed on, following conversations in the forums, and other features that are missed. I think it is easier to get to the daily lesson and skills lessons, but that’s about the extent of my happiness with it. Obviously TAC has put a lot of time and money into this new direction and site, so we’ll either have to be resigned to work with it or move on. I’m a life member, so it’s a bit different. Good luck in your decision, and happy plucking!

That’s a really good idea @Marty69
