This is exactly the type of stuff I plan on drilling for the first few months. There are a couple songs I want to try learning after a little while, but I’m not trying to jump into anything rhythmic yet. Just going very slowly and feeling for when the note starts to sound right.

I’m also making sure I have good form by checking the tuner occasionally for the individual strings. I’ve already trained myself to use a lot less pressure and I’m getting much better sound.

I plan on starting with things like hand drills, not so much focusing on music, but rather muscle memory. Once I can get used to the hand positions and feel of the strings, then I’ll start working with it from the mindset of music and start trying some riffs/songs I want to learn.

I’m looking at it almost as much as a tool as I am an instrument.

Bonus afterthought edit:

I also should mention that with my digital music production came the ear for what I want something to sound like. I’m way more focused on getting good form and a good audio capture than I am on getting my mental badge for playing a song poorly.
