This is just the kind of detail I was looking for! Unfortunately, the camera is often fixed down-neck from what you're illustrating (". . . put your fingers here and here" -- while the camera views empty strings). I'd like a better shot of where your thumb is, in relation to the neck, because mine gets numbness and painful twinges. A sure sign I'm going at it all wrong! Will check out your other videos. Thanks!
