How would you rate the Pickslanting Primer?

Hello,

I’m unfortunately on a fixed budget (I’m disabled), so I just can’t afford the subscription. I am thinking about purchases the Pickslantiing Primer. For those who have it and have been through it, how would you rate it on a 1-10 scale for:

  1. Information provided
  2. Value

My picking is probably my worst issue with my playing, so any feedback on the course is much appreciated. Thanks for any help.

Both 10. I bought the Primer ages ago when I was a grad student without much income to consistently subscribe. It’s been HEAVILY overhauled since. Amazing purchase.

Thank you Eric. That is very encouraging. Did going through the course immediately help your picking improve? I don’t know how good you were before you started. :slight_smile:

You don’t know how good I am now, either! :joy:

I think it depends heavily on where you’re at. It’s very easy to get sucked in and overthink, when IMO the core insight is “start at medium-fast speed.” I would not be where I am without it, though, and think it’s the best pedagogy of its kind available.

Both 10 here too, bought it a month or two ago and it really did help me with the concepts in it.

Also i have a shoulder injury (pinched nerve) where the pain goes all the way down to my thumb when it gets bad,so that’s another problem it helped me work around.
Really do recommend getting it,best of luck man!

Thanks Evothal,

Sorry to hear about your shoulder injury. My pain is also nerve related in my neck. Decades of pain leading to a neck surgery, countless attempts to hope ease pain. I did get two ablation treatments late last year which has helped, but it won’t ever be perfect.

I’m really glad this site is helping you out. It seems like a great place and solid methods for helping to reach goals.

the Pickslanting Primer is a game changer. Nuff Said. Seriously, I credit both the Primer and the Forum community with me having pretty much all of my current picking chops.
