It’ll be more comfortable the more you use it. Force yourself and you’ll be a better player for it.

I don’t use my pinky either, I just didn’t learn that way. I can play that way if it’s required but it doesn’t feel very comfortable to me. Of course I do have abnormally long fingers so that factors in somewhere.

I know you made this video with good intentions. But your energy could be spent on better things. The last thing this world needs is another kid who probably never ever saw him posting another EC guitar learning video. If there were not 14 million of them already it might be ok. I see people posting these lessons and saying just play bit kind of like this and I am thinking that this is incredible. Unless you are a phenom guitar play, people should stay with there age group.

sounds like you mean the Gibson ES336, which is like a scaled down version of the 335, just a little larger than a Les Paul body-nice guitars, Jon Herrington of Steely Dan plays one

Dude no offense intended but if you cannot figure it out by ear maybe you should stop watching videos and considering the fact that music is much more about hearing or listening than watching "step-by-step guides to make this particular melody magically sound out from my guitar like whatever guitar god". I like Clapton and his style. But really, if you cannot take by ear some simple legato pentatonic pattern, you should reconsider what you’re trying to learn and especially, How.

Clapton’s vibrato is so damn difficult for me. I can do BB King’s "butterfly" style easily. You just act like you’re turning a door knob. But Clapton’s is so sinusoidal — like you’re just lifting your hand straight up and down. Very hard to control.
