Hey everyone,


I’ve been playing electric guitar for a few months now and one thing still bothers me; my pinky just feels weak and awkward compared to my other fingers. I practice regularly, do finger exercises, and even run scales slowly to get it involved, but it still struggles to press cleanly or stay in position when I play faster passages.


Is this something that just takes a long time to develop, or am I maybe doing something wrong with my technique? Any specific exercises or tips that helped you strengthen your pinky would be great to hear.


Thanks in advance!
