I’ve been playing guitar for a couple of decades and I’ve developed a pain on the fingertip of my index finger (fretboard hand). It is not the calous stuff. It’s deeper. Seems to be bone or nerve. Any suggestions on how to heal?

I think I know SOME of what to do, but I am entering a blues guitar playing contest and one of the judging criteria is “stage presence”, which is a very abstract quality if you think about it. I’m interested in how others define it, or what they think it is, or how to improve it, etc. This could include many different aspects of performance, so I’m interested in hearing ANY suggestions, no matter how odd they might seem to somebody else. Thanks to all who answer! BTW: I am an experienced performer, but I really want to see this put into words because the concept really is VERY abstract and I want to do my absolute best EVERY time – thanks again!!!

I play guitar and I know that smaller picks and bigger picks sound different but thats not what i am asking about. I’m wondering if picks from different companies really make a difference. Some picks cost much more than others but do they really differ from each other that much? For instance if i got a pack of Fender brand picks, and a pack of First Act picks (same thickness and size) would it make a difference in my playing?

Anyone can play scales, improvise solos, play riffs etc.
But what I want to learn is how to add my own original sound that’s personal to me to my guitar playing. Anyone have any ideas?

I have been playing guitar for eight years now and I never realized this till now, but i can’t use my pinkie when I play guitar. As dumb of a situation as this sounds, are there any helpful tips for learning to use my pinkie when I play guitar?

I’ve been playing (electic)guitar since the beginning of this year and I still really suck. So i wanna know how do i get better.
I know, practice a lot, but when i alway fail in doing a good exercise it gets kinda boring pretty quickly.
I really want to become a good guitar player, because when I listen to my fav bands, i wanna be able to play the same stuff as them
i can play prett much all standard chords, major, minor, and septiem-chords
i can play most chords along the neck based on the 6th and 5th strings
nothing really special
i also can play very easy songs like ”hotel california” and the main riff of
”I believe in a thing called love” of The Darkness
