Thank you for the replies. It is getting better daily but slowly. It's small increments but I can see it. I have been doing like you said and watching the instructors intently for correct form (was doing it before but started playing at half speed to really get a good look). Finding my fret hand thumb is drifting to the left and trying to lay down as I play, and my strumming hand is drifiting towards the bridge and sometimes hitting my pickup switch. Fun stuff trying to correct all that is going on, having a blast learning!
