  • I have a lot of trouble with my LH thumb. This video helps a lot, but would love to see one specifically for the classical guitar.

  • Nice instruction. This is the second day I've been "playing" guitar!

  • Thank you Jamie!

  • I seem to remember you saying that the thumb should be in the middle of the neck in the Principles, have you changed your mind or am I mistaken?

  • Funny, that I was contemplating this subject today :) It turns out I was doing it the wrong way. Thanks for the video, Jamie!
