‘feel better dear Rombsi[ck]…. I too had my share of hand injury a few years back and I appreciate what a nightmare it is for anyone who, like us, is pathologically addicted to playing guitar incessantly. In one of his many illuminating recommendations [and each I always treasure] Ricardo suggested that I should seize the opportunity to practice my ‘right hand’ techniques; [my injury was on the index finger of my LEFT hand]. So I kept a loose capo on the fingerboard to mute the strings and practiced arpeggios, tremolo, rasgueos, etc. I must report that the incident helped me improve my right hand dexterity significantly. Since, I occasionally force myself to practice that way, even though my left hand has fully recovered. Anyway, make the best out of it, there is always something to learn from or out of a ‘curve ball’. ‘look forward to you recovering and playing [as always] in your most entertaining fashion. Dearly,
