  • Love it!

    I would love a podcast that talks about strengthening you hands to hold a pick after an injury. I have to hold my pick with my thumb and middle finger on my right hand (missing the tip of my index finger). I tend to shy away from playing with a pick because of the struggle with holding a pick and doing it well. Thank you for your podcast.
