You mean holding the guitar between my legs? That's fine, that works... That's how I do most my practicing. The problem with that position is that it gets harder to hold the pick correctly. I think your picking hand needs to adjust! I had to adjust when I finally caved in and changed my playing position. Suddenly my picking angle was all wrong and I couldn't pick the way I used to. After a while it got even better than it was before. You just need to be very aware of any tension, anywhere. Get rid of it. ![]() This post has been edited by jacmoe: Jul 16 2008, 03:35 PM -------------------- QUOTE ("Steve Vai") Start by playing something - a bend, a riff, a scale, a song - very slowly; if you make a mistake, start over; do this over and over, until you can play it flawlessly - and I do mean flawlessly - many times in a row. Next, gradually increase the tempo. Eventually you'll be flailing like a madman. |

Hit the gym, lateral raises, forward raises, upright rows, military presses, behind head presses. The pain will be gone in no time.
