How I Play This Huge Little Wing Stretch

    There's one 5-fret stretch in Little Wing that has always been hard for me to play, but while shooting my Little Wing Deep Dive course, I experimented with several ways to play it. This is the approach that worked for me most of the time. It involves an oddly squeezed hand position and hooking the tip of my pinky finger. My hands are average size, so making this stretch is difficult, even after playing for 30 years.
