Thats a really clever tip! The way you hold it can make a big difference..Everybody needs to experiment with different positions to see how they suit them..

That's a very simple but very interesting advice. Many people hold their picks for years and not thinking about how they hold them - including me! smile.gif

Nice advice! The more you practice in a bad way, the more you have to practice to fix the errors.
