hello everyone,
i own a gibson SG, its just got the 2 pickups on it. When every i play i tend to always let my right hand (picking hand) pinky rest on the guitar touching the side of the bridge pickup. i noticed the instructors on the lessons dont let their hand rest on their guitars.
can letting my pinky stay on my guitar slow my learning process and/or lower the maximum speed ill be able to achieve?
Good question
It all depends on what you are playing.A good example of this is on the new metal lesson and it's one of the last 2 video's were dude talks about 2 ways he holds the pick to play.Sorry cant think of his name its the german dude that's funny
.I guess if your pinky is in the way of strings your trying to strike it would cause a problem especially when soloing on the bottom strings.I rest my finger's right past the pickup on the bridge sometimes and it hasent caused me problems.I'm sure somemore people will give you some opinions atleast i hope
