Hi. 


I was wandering if I could possibly get some help. I am working through Fundamentals 2 at the moment and also been practising my major scales and minor pentatonic scales as well. 


I know exactly where the notes are from a "theory" perspective but I am getting extremely frustrated with muted notes and also when working down the scale I seem to often pick the wrong string. Do I need to maybe try and train my left hand more in exactly where to go and make sure I look at my right hand while picking? Are my strings maybe too high or too loose over the fretboard? 


Would it fix the problem if I moved to an electric guitar instead? 


Just really frustrated with it at the moment because it sounds terrible. 😒
