hey, i'm new, i've just recently taken up the uke and i love it but i can't comfortably do bar chords and i'm worried that spells death for certain songs i want to learn. Here is my issue.
It doesn't matter how hard i press on my index finger, where i place my thumb or how i curl my hand. My index finger won't stay on the A string and when i go to put my middle or other middle finger on the C or other strings i not only cause a sad sound but i also can't stop my finger from hitting the next string down. It hurts... i keep trying and then i have to stop playing it just plain hurts. What do i do?
