Based on Matt's earlier post, I've already ordered and received 3 of PE's books. Fascinating stuff. I'm looking forward to learning his E-cises! EdZ and Vickie: You are right about the importance of correct technique. I've been playing the guitar daily for 37 years, but that doesn't mean my technique is flawless. In light of the recent difficulties which have caused me as much mental as physical distress, I also ordered a book called "The Healthy Guitarist" which goes into the biomechanics of playing, including proper posture, seating, and holding of the instrument. I probably should have learned that stuff long ago, but will be the first to recognize that I'm a "slouch". Hopefully, we're on the right track. Thanks for everything.
