Any tips on how to cut down on the pressure? I know there have been topics about this recently but I don't really know what to do for this specific case because legato does need more pressure... but not that much. Especially for a static finger. You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick. Plus all our lessons are packed with free content! Don't miss today's free blues, jazz & country licks.

Eventually it will be like you just pulling your finger straight off without any tension on the 6th fret!! You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.
