Hi.
I've been playing guitar for 20+ years, and took up ukulele about a month ago. With my background I'm progressing pretty quickly, but I keep having a problem with strumming: it's wearing down the nail on my index finger, specifically the edge that is next to the middle finger.
I also play fingerstyle guitar, so I'd like to keep the nails on my right hand in good shape. Also, I think I could get a better/louder strumming sound with a decent fingernail.
Is there something wrong with my technique, or is this just bound to happen?
