Hello!
I’ve had this fingerpicking problem for a while…
When I’m fingerpicking, and I have to move my hand in a short amount of time to another spot (usually far from the spot my hand was in first), the string makes a sound that isn’t completely ¨bad¨, but it also isn’t what I want. It’s like I didn’t hold the string long enough.
Can that be the problem? ’cause if it is, I don’t know how other people do that!
Or can it be that my ukulele is too cheep (or old, maybe?) or just the strings are bad or something? I have a Diamond Head DU-250 Satin Mahogany Soprano Ukulele.
I’m struggeling with this a lot, because I just makes your song sounds weird and… well, like I’m bad at playing ukulele. Which I guess is not true.
Or do you think it can be that I have pretty small hands?

Anyways, thanks!

Greetz from Emma!
