Good day =)
I am upgrading to a Pono ATD soon, and have noticed that my lanikai has a lot of scratches where the neck meets the soundboard (where I strum).
Either this is normal or I'm not playing properly...when I watch Aldrine play on vids it looks like his fingertips are just touching the strings and not the soundboard at all.
So two questions:
Do you have any tips or exercises for keeping my nails off the delicate soundboard?
Would you recommend products such as the nylon no adhesive strumsafe customizable scratch-guards? (www.strumsafe.com)
Thanks very much!
