My guy showed me one where Im going from the 5th to 8th fret and I cant stretch that far.


When I used to play every day, a 4-fret stretch was no big deal - some passages require a 5-fret stretch and near the neck that effing sucks.

Yea I used to think the long stretches, especially something like 1-3-5 or 3-5-7, were anatomically impossible for me since my hands are not large. Eventually I got those though. Just took time and lots of perseverance.
