Does anyone else have an issue with a slight wiggle of the thumb on your picking hand? It's almost like a hitch in the thumb when picking or movement that occurs. Maybe it is too much vibration from the strings, not having a loose enough wrist, and using the thumb to compensate. It is something that I have delt with for many years. I tried to experiment with different ways of actually holding the pick between my thumb and index finger. My instructor of many years doesn't seem overly concerned about anymore; however, it does at times impede my ability with fast alternate picking. I do not know of a gadget that is available for this type of thing. I wanted to try and make a small splint for my thumb to immobilize it while playing.
