Greetings
I find myself playing blazing fast alternate picking lines on the 4 high strings of the guitar ( D G B E) because I can anchor or graze the strings with the meet part of my hand below the the thumb. When I try and transition to the low A And E this anchor is no longer present. Has anyone else struggled with this?
My first thought is to build a device that I can attach to the guitar to provide that anchor past the low E string but this doesn’t feel like an option for my high end prs or Martin acoustic. Are there creative ways to solve this problem?
Hi!
I’ve been there. Decided to try anchoring against the body. Problem solved in my case.
Also, don’t be shy of placing your hand as high up the body as needed (a useful guide is to palm mute with the part where your pinky meets your palm).
