After ~6 months of learning shamisen on my own using Kyle’s book and youtube videos finally looks like I have figured out how to correctly hold the bachi. And not just hold but comfortable! Now I can use any of my 3 bachi’s with no major difference and with enough comfort, so I can relax the wrist and fingers almost to the point when bachi slips out and can play 30-45min without killing my hand.
