metalhead -> Rasgueado hand tilt (Aug. 21 2025 21:58:57)

Vertical or tilted, Ricardo? I'm trying to improve my rasgueado sound including the upstroke sound. I was wondering if the vertical or angled tilt would be better for creating a better sound.

from that angle view we can't really see, but from the front, it should be about 50 to 60 degrees that you sweep the fingers across the strings. Some players hold the neck up and it gets a much steeper angle, perhaps going to 80 degrees. See Manuel Molina for example:

G. Nunez right hand posture in your profile pic. What angle is it?

It is quite steep as would be for arpegios tremolos or picado. He lowers the angle for rasgueados. Watch how it changes here (1:30 is a good spot):

yea that's what. vertical in my video was 10 degree vs tilt at 45 degree.

How is it possible? You cant do ras at a 10 degree angle, which is almost horizontal.

There are 2 extremes.
0 degree angle is horizontal (parallel to the strings).
90 degree is vertical.

I am measuring angle from the vertical axis..

He is means -10 from vertical (90 degrees). Aka 80 degrees.
