Hi Marty there! I´m Ezequiel from Argentina and I was just wondering where you did your studies in guitar...that´s one question... the other is this: I play a lot of hours a day and i´ve been for something like 3 years, and I still find some trouble with my picking when i try some scales fast. I find it difficult to pick the strings clean... and it gets worse with the 6th and 5th. strings... how could i get a clean and fast sound? thanx in advance"!
