Greetings, just joined the forum and i need some advice. PB stesses keeping the fingers on the right hand in a closed position while picking. I am really struggling to to do this without my fingers rubbing against the strings as i move up to the d,a and low e string. I have developed the bad habit keeping my fingers straight and resting against the pickguard for stability. I am going to continue picking the way PB teaches even though it is very uncomfortable. 25 years of bad habits and poor technique are hard to break. Any help would be appreciated.. thanks!
