Hey, Seven String gang,
I've been playing guitar for a while now, but the more I get into shred, the harder it gets to play the same basic patterns. Its not that the fingerings are difficult, its that my fretting hand will kind of "lock up". Like, it will just stop moving fluidly and I have to keep pushing it to speed back up. It used to be able to roll through three note runs fairly quickly. I have heard from at least a handful of people that caffeine is to blame. I had cut caffeine out for like a month, but then I started to consume it again. Is that probably the problem? And are there any other tips to keep the hands nice and nimble? Thanks, you guys.
-Steve.
