@heyheyboi22 hey buddy just stumbling around the tube and saw your comment. You mentioned troubles hitting certain strings. Check out my channel, there may be a tip or two in there for you. But hey if you're pressed for time.... consider using your THUMB to slightly rest on the E string (this will mute it if it's slightly touching) =)
