Pretty good day yesterday. I’m still working on my L. hand fretting position. Boy, when ya learn somethin’ incorrectly, it’s really a pain to correct it. I’m also working on tied notes that slur into the next measure — not so bad. Alternating picking continues to confuse me, but it is showing improvement too.
I thought that the strings on my GL1 were too close together, but it was my bad fretting. I changed it as my book instructed and voila’ the strings are much better.
I haven’t had a private teacher since junior high school, and we were both pretty worthless. He didn’t teach much, and I didn’t practice. However, teaching one’s self is not the way to go either. I guess one hasta search hard for a good teacher, and then work at learning from him.

Second session was the same as the first. I’m trying to get comfortable with GL1 before I continue on with the book.
