Hi. My name is Dennis and I’ve been playing longer than my playing would indicate, let’s put it that way. I saw one of Troy’s videos and finally, I got tired of the same warm ups and never getting past a certain speed. I’m sure this is a common story here. Anyhow, so I joined hoping to find guidance to how to practice and I’m not sure how to navigate the site for this. Help? I went through the primer and I don’t really know what picking style I have… I actually have a “natural” upstroke escape (am I using that right?) but that’s part of the problem. So I played around with the downstroke escape and actually… that feels pretty good. It’s totally uncontrolled but before I write an entire book here, let’s say I want to adopt that to speed up my playing. Where would I go to get exercises and tutorials to focus on how to “control” that movement?
Thanks!
