Hi Ray, I'm also new to the guitar, and have had my membership only a little while. I feel your pain! I've been feeling clumsy and wondering if I've been given chipolata sausage fingers as a cruel twist of fate! I'm not much ahead of you to be fair, and am finding Lisa to be a very good teacher indeed, however tonight I started the 3 string lesson Early Bird Gala, and now I definitely know I've got full sized Savaloy sausage fingers ;~) I've stopped for tonight as I cannot for the life of me transition between strings on either my picking hand or my fretting hand! Also struggling not to hit multiple strings at the same time! Reading about this I can only hope that the positive stories are true and that it will get better! From what I have read posture and positioning are very important. I found some videos on YouTube useful too. Good luck, keep at it - I think it's going to be a long journey for me, but hopefully a fun one.
