Just practice using your pinky. It will get better the more you use it.

I'm also the author of PlaneTalk - The Truly Totally Different Guitar Instruction Book. The lesson that this book, slide-rule and DVD teach is the most powerful of all: the 'trick' to seeing the entire fretboard as friendly, familiar territory. If you're beyond the beginner stage -- you know your chords, scales, maybe even modes -- but you're still wondering how to turn it all into music, how to invent and improvise, how to access all the bits and pieces, then this is the book for you. You will also be able to join the private PlaneTalkers' Forum and discuss the simple visualization technique with me and many others. - Read more here .

Testimonials

Dear Kirk, your 'PlaneTalk' and slide rule arrived this morning, and was read for the first time by 5pm. I look forward to revisions! May I CONGRATULATE you, on this brilliant 'product'. Like the Shubb capo, ChickenShake, (and Bluetack for plectra retention!), you deserve a design award for service to musicians (Grammy?). As with Ralph Denyer's "Guitar Handbook", you have re-evolutionised this aspect of music theory.
