Yeah, you need do make more curve with your pinky
and get better angle in order not to mute any string bellow with it. It takes some time, just practice and you'll fix that. -------------------- Youtube

Hey.
I read this thread another day, but I did not have anything to comment. Now I was watching some Steve Vai's video and , heck, he has reaaaaly long fingers. So long fingers should be no problem at all Just try to correct your position (maybe Steve vai can inspire you? ) -------------------- my "Thank you GMC!" video

That happens to all the guys at the beginning even with the simplest open chords, not to mention barre chords. Make a biger angle and press the string with the very top of your finger. It takes time but it's something everyone went through.

With just a little more practice you will get your fingers to bend more and be able to adjust the position where you don't mute any unwanted strings. It really happens to everyone, so don't worry!

I think it will also help if you if you position your thumb lower on the guitar neck:
Not the best of pictures, but I think that'll give you an idea of what I'm talking about. |
