use as little of your fingers as you can, like the very very tips, and no pressure. do it lightly. What kinda strings you got?

i know the technique, i just dont practice it alot, im working too hard on things that matter. grooving, and reading music. im using DR hex core, the lowrider strings.

those are the strings I use on my 4 and 5. Good Strings, and good for you on working on grooving and such. You are gonna use it a whole lot more than Vic's
icing on the cake. Watch some of his video lessons, i used to have one that was like 2 hours long on my computer. But i lost it
