Hi Lauren,
A short story. Iā€™ve been playing for 58 years now and have used every pick holding trick you mentioned. As Iā€™ve grown older and my thumb started to get arthritic, my picks would fly into oblivion. I tried adhering cork, double sided tape, thin abrasives, etc., to my Fender mediums, but they all gave the same results; a pick that didnā€™t feel right. Then I stumbled on something unusual. I have a handlebar mustache and wax it regularly. One day I didnā€™t clean the wax off my finger and thumb very well and went in to play a gig. The pick never escaped my grip. (Iā€™m a flatpicker and jazz guitarist). That residual mustache wax helped the grip so I used it regularly. Then I found a better, cleaner, less expensive solution. Try fingertip moistener on your thumb and finger. I use SORTKWIK. Works great and I encourage anyone, young or old, to give this a try.

Great advice. I started out about 18 months ago and was sold medium picks with my guitar, and I've always felt my playing sounded quite "percussive" . After watching this video I went and bought some 0.46mm picks and my sound has been transformed, sounds brighter and seems to ring out better.

First time I tried to use a pick it popped out of my hand and fell inside the guitar. That was last week. Itā€™s still there.

I love her tutorials. She is very generous for spending all the time to make these videos, and lessons. Trying to the the $$ available to sign up for her courses. You are truly a giving person, taking all the time to teach us wannabe guitar players. I'm 74 now....lol

Iā€™d like to give rock band /guitar hero itā€™s props. When I was trying to do hard medium songs, the up strum took my points to the next level. Now that I am a grown up trying to learn to actually play, that muscle memory kicked in. It

Awsome lesson Lauren. Thank you. I found these picks a few weeks ago they are as light as a feather they have a very nice sound. Dunlop Nylon Standard Picks / Plectrums - 0.38mm.

Thank you for this video. It was very helpful. My strumming sounded like your example with the thick pick and stiff wrist. Grabbing a thinner pick helped, then relaxing the wrist and not playing from the elbow so much greatly improved my sound within minutes. Thanks again!

Smooth strumming is an art! Itā€™s a beautiful thing to watch. Thanks for the lesson.
