[QUOTE=caponi14]Is there a way to solve it without me breaking my ring finger, just to get it to bend above the High E?
It's not absolutely necessary to get the high E string to ring.
When you need to get that note to ring try an inversion shape like this:
E |--2--|
B |--4--|
G |--4--|
D |-----|
A |-----|
E |-----|
Hope this helps. Let us know!
