I am finding the course interesting, but challenging at the same time!Right now I am finding difficulty with the "alternate picking" as I usually strum with just my fingers.One point: you recommend placing the guitar parallel on your Right leg, but i have been brought up to have the guitar on the left leg (with a footrest) in order to have the neck at more of a 45degree angle. I feel more comfortable in this position. I would mention that my hands are smallish. Am I being unreasonable?
