    Question on the tab — is that a hammer-on or a slide going into the B part? Sounds like a slide to my ear but the tab reads hammer.

    Same here at first. What fixed it for me was practicing that measure by itself for a week, no B part at all.

  3. Theresa Nickels ·

    Metronome at 60 and no faster until it's clean twice through. Boring but it works.

  4. Rita Alvarez ·

    Try it without the pick for a few passes. Sounds silly but it told me my right hand was doing too much.

  5. Roy Ellender ·

    Recording yourself is humbling but it's the fastest fix I've found.

  6. Nate Overby ·

    The pinky thing goes away, I promise. Took me about three months.

    There's a slower track in the resources for this one. If you want it slower still, let me know and I'll cut one.
