Learn more on how to improve your two-hand synchronization using these three tips:

1. Use A Heavier Pick

Thin guitar picks bend every time you pick a note. This creates a tiny delay before it returns to position for you to play the next note. This delay messes up the synchronization between your picking and fretting hands and makes it very hard to play accurately at fast speeds.

Using a stiff pick keeps your hands in tight sync because it doesn’t need to reset after each note. Additionally, a thicker pick gives you louder volume with less picking force. This helps you articulate notes more clearly.

2. Measure Your Progress

Select a specific exercise you want to work on and choose a metronome tempo where you can play it with both hands in tight sync (this tempo will be a lot slower than your top playing speed). Measure this over time to develop your ability to spot mistakes that keep you from making more progress. This helps you better understand what you need to do to get good results. When you get results from your practice, you feel more motivated to keep practicing and keep pursuing your goals. This helps you achieve your guitar playing goals faster.

3. Spend Some Time Practicing Guitar Unplugged

Many guitarists are unaware of crucial mistakes in their guitar playing because they only play through an amp with distortion settings.

Playing guitar unplugged exposes mistakes in your playing and forces you to keep your hands in sync with perfect articulation. This improves your picking articulation and makes playing with distortion much easier.
