Got myself a nice Couch strap for my F, but what's the best way to tie it around the scroll without it looking so janky? I know nothing about knots.

Curling my fingers around the pick has been my biggest challenge coming from playing guitars for many years where I anchor my pinky against the body. I've gotten much better at control but the current challenge is getting a good chop sound which I find is difficult with that pick hold. Speaking of picks, I bought a three pack of Dunlop Americana (rounded triangle) because I thought the shape would help my pick hold, but they're like 3.0 and I'm getting crazy pick/string noise. I have a stubby that's 2.0 that I assume is the more optimal thickness?

Any tips for extraneous string noise? I think I hear a G sounding a lot when I'm picking.

It's more like the G strings are vibrating and sounding through the body faintly while I'm picking on the E strings. There's a fair bit of extra noise while I'm playing, but I think I'm primarily hearing a G. I've seen some guitarists put a scrunchie around the nut I think to help mute extra string noise.

I brought up the pinky question to my guitar teacher way back when I was in high school and he said to "use it to my advantage."
