gato -> RE: support for 4 finger rasgueo (Aug. 14 2007 2:56:00)

That's funny, I mean, I had no idea that you were talking about launching, and I don't usually launch, for ras, though I do launch for flicking out the fingers all at once, or in two's or threes all at once, with wrist action, instead of a finger at a time for ras; though my fingers do sometimes slap the palms for ras depending on the effect I'm trying to achieve. What I told you is a way to balance the hand. To me that and sticking the thumb on a string or the guitar face is support, but it's my english. I was really beside myself with self disgust though there is no reason to be. But, you are right that you must do what you find comfortable, and a good teacher, will have alternate ways to do things, and make adjustments when teaching. There is no reason to get into dogma, when reading a book, unless you can make your choice from a couple of several books. Especially, also, when seeking advice. Just lip service! Gary
