Good morning all,
I am few weeks into playing the Uke and I'm struggling with catching my finger on the G string as I strum. I'm fine if I strum lightly and with no variation in rhythm, but as soon as I change it up I catch it and it's either really loud or twangs. I have Aquila Nylgut strings with wound low G. I'm strumming with my forefinger using the doorknob twisting motion. My nails are cut short.
Im thinking maybe I should get an unwound low G and see if that helps, but I know it's my technique that is off.
Any suggestions?
