ORIGINAL: Ruphus quote:
ORIGINAL: pink Way to easy to over complicate things here by expecting that the correct technique will present itself to you in a very short space of time. Touch the strings, feel the guitar, enjoy the sound, the texture and just get to know it. Your hands will develop their own touch the longer you play and thus your own technique will evolve....you will read,watch,listen shout , swear ...do all the things a human is pre programmed to do whilst you learn,but be sure that if you want to play then you will learn. No right way , no wrong way. You work on bodies and as you know our bodies have the habit of being able to do some extraordinary things if we allow them to . Don't force it just listen to what your body says to you and accept. As we learn more technique then we adapt what we know naturally to get it right for ourselves. Good luck and enjoy. pink That seems no good avice at all, Pink. In a civilisation so detouched from natural being that kids suffer all kind of motoric misconception, it should be more than clear that your body will NOT tell you most ergonomical ways. It would need certain preconditions first, and whether those suffice for something as special like guitar playing shows to be rather questionable still. People cherrish the idea of body matters settling in by default and at best even with something like instinct for humans ( who have none ), leaving out that we are no lemur. Relying on your body and precondidtional routines to execute guitar techniques will work out for a very small minority, and be a needlessly winded often times hard to repair road for the vast majority. Let beginners´ questions be answered as technically profound as possible. ... Sometimes it will even help advanced players, justby remembering certain aspects while giving / reading advice on useful approach. Ruphus Hey Ruphus I really don't give a lemurs right testicle if you think my post is good advice or not! This is my opinion and it is how I feel. I have suggested that the body should not be forced but allowed to develop...simple. My words ,my feelings and like you my right to comment and suggest . Hope that meets with your exacting criticism pink
