Oh yeah, I'm fascinated about the plasticity of the brain and re-growing neural pathways, it's incredible.
You know, all I really wanted to do, since I mainly like to sing, is fingerpick. And I think maybe indeed that that is something I COULD get good at, nothing special, just something like Dolly Parton for example.
If I disappear I'll be back, gonna go eat, but I believe next Friday I could post something (if I can make it un-cringeworthy lol).
Seems like on voat more people participated but can't really remember. The whole thing is pretty neat. The thread I mean, and people get to interact with someone so accomplished.
What you're looking for is 'arpeggios'. That's a fancy term, but all it means is 'broken chords'.
So, take your G chord and don't strum it. Pick the low E with your thumb, then pick your G string with your ring finger, then pick the A string with your pointer, and finally pick the high E with your pinky. Congrats, you've just appregiated a G chord.
I'll practice that, thanks. Gonna try to find a youtube clip on it too.

Funny, never even looked the term up though I've heard it all my life. Well I had to take care of a lot of things over the years, over 5 homeschooled kids, a business, etc.
Yeah, it's not easy to find practice time - and it's very easy to not find practice time.
