Gravity Defying Plectrum

It took me a few minutes to realise that he hadn’t dropped the pick for a few practice sessions now,  something quite common with strumming patterns when learning pop songs from Oasis to The Jam.

The best advice to pass on today from my student is that in order to reduce the amount of times the plectrum falls into the sound hole and keep a good grip in general,  use reversible sticky tape.   Recommended for playing strong rhythmic songs.

Thanks Keith!
