I decided to work on Ben's Land of Legato and also Dejan's Little Finger Workout
I'll admit I have the slowest left hand in the world, I thought these two lessons would help change that.
They're really helping to show WHY I have crappy left hand speed (my picking hand isn't blazing either mind you!)
I always put it down to having small hands and short fingers, but those asian kids on youtube took that excuse away from me, DAMN YOU LITTLE ASIAN CHILD GUITAR VIRTUOSOS!!!!!
Anyway
1) My thumb is lazy and doesn't move with the rest of my hand when moving postitions,
2) It also bend back, causing unwanted tension in my hand, I think this 2nd thing is linked to playing acoustic guitar for many years and needing to use more pressure to play barre chords etc
I'm sure I'll find more things wrong as I continue, but at least now I can practice slowly and try and get rid of the bad habits and create new good habits!
