Bento Box

Been playing for about a year and half now and I still suck bad. One of my major struggles was my grip on my pick. I tend to hold the pick loosely for a lighter sound since I don’t want to play too loudly in the house - however this leads me to always have my pick rotate or slowly fall out of my fingers. I’ve never been able to finish a song before because I had to stop and adjust my pick or lick my fingers for my grip.

I started by punching a couple holes into my picks but that only marginally helped. Then I found this site which has a lot of user-submitted ideas on how to fix my slipping guitar pick problem. Lots of things to try out but tonight I was able to bang out the entire “ target="_blank">Boy who blocked his own shot” song by using some double sided tape around the pick. One less thing for my mind to worry about I guess and I was able to play with ease.

Haven’t picked up the guitar in a few weeks (got back into GoW), but after tonight’s pick solution I feel like I’ve improved a bit. Maybe I’ll be able to play some more faster songs now with more confidence.
