Yep. I try not to touch the low B string. Just having to learn to mute the 7th string, do my GT lessons. I do the "spider legs" exercise using all the strings. It seems like a bit of extra work, but just trying to get comfortable. This website has been great so far, very structured which I dearly needed. I didn't like how a lot of YouTube lessons were, and tab sites were confusing and trying to figure out if thats how the song is actually played or if thats just the author of the tablature's best guess.
