Working your Fingers!
Getting your fingers to do what your brain wants is sometimes a tough part of learning guitar. Today, we're going to train our fingers to move the correct way.
Watch this video and work on this finger agility exercise:
- Place fingers on the smallest string
- Using frets 1, 2, 3, and 4, place one finger down at a time and pluck the string
- Do this back and forth slowly with proper finger placement
