I suggest you try learning Legato Etude lesson (otherwise called Basics Of Legato). It contains a useful exercise to get rid of legato tension.

Hi Steve
Guess you're using pinky,right? One option is to avoid pinky at the moment so fingering will be: 14th fret G string-Middle 12th fret B string-Index 14th fret B string-Middle 15th fret B string-Ring This is probably easier but you should practice with pinky as often as possible. Also try playing 12th,13th and 15th on B string. That will make you more comfortable for a while cause using ring and pinky together in legato, hmm,probably hardest combination. -------------------- Youtube

I suggest you try learning Legato Etude lesson (otherwise called Basics Of Legato). It contains a useful exercise to get rid of legato tension. That is a great lesson, explains it very well. I practiced it for a while, about 20 min, now I have a claw. -------------------- Had a guitar hanging, just about waist high, and we are going to play these things until the day we die. |

Man i explain it all in the lesson. The best thing would be to have it in the middle.
