Hey everyone, I've been trying to practice inside picking but I've hit a problem whereby I do my downstroke on the bottom string, then as I change direction to hit the upper string again, I end up hitting the bottom string again on my way up, leading to a very sloppy sound. Would anyone happen to know how to solve this? It really only happens when I try and play fast, because at slower speeds I have more time to "clear" the bottom string, if that makes sense.
Hopefully this diagram would help
Easiest way to solve for this is to change pick direction. So when you reach the last string, skip that down stroke and do it (then the next string) as an up stroke. Of course you could also do what you're doing in the pic but it takes more precision and movement. Inside picking is the worst - https://youtu.be/RRufj_z9Hos
So if I'm understanding you correctly, you mean I should be picking from the outside of the two strings instead of in between them, right?
