Great to hear! Thanks for the feedback.
I should have watched this sooner. I find it very helpful
Great, my fingertips have grooves in them and hurt when doing scales!!

Well, I hope this helped. Keep up those scales daily, even when your skin is sore, and you should develop callouses in a couple weeks that will make things more comfortable.
Great tip! Thanks!!!

Sure thing, man!
Thanks for the good tip. Being a beginner and always thinking I would have to press so hard to achieve the note. This makes things easier and I have less grooves in my fingers now.
Hi, Rob.
I’m very glad to find your website.
I found my pressure number is around 7.
I’ve always been thinking the pressure number should be 10.
But I’m much relieved now to know that the maximum pressure is not required.
Thanks a lot for your great tip.
