GMC Forum _ PRACTICE ROOM _ Weird Sliding......

Posted by: Darknodar123 Nov 21 2009, 11:01 PM

Well when I slide my finger tends to go against the string and that results to slow and bad sliding.

What I do to solve that?

I wash my left hand

But thats a temporary solution because 5 minutes later the same happens.

What should I do?

Also this thing especially happens with my middle finder on the A and D string.To be precise it ONLY happens then

Less pressure on the strings

Vaseline ??? Or flatwound strings ?

Less pressure and refining the technique. You can also apply the GHS Fast Fret lubricant to the strings - it will make sliding much easier and it will clean the strings at the same time.
