As the title suggest i'm looking for help fingering this chord. If someone could even tab it out for ne that would be great!
I enjoy Bream's and Russell's recordings of this piece, but I'm very interested in getting more recommendations from you. Of course, I accept lute versions as well! Thank you!
I hope you’ll enjoy this quick lesson, for nylon strings guitar. Guitar: Ovation Country Artist
I am confused because it asked for a finger placement on the E note. I am asking about the first bar. Tha is in advanced.
What books/works can you recommend for three guitars? We play acoustic and worked several years with a teacher who arranged a wide variety of trio music from Dowland to Porter to Jobim. Circumstances have changed and we don't study with this teacher any longer, so until we make progress on creating our own arrangements, what are your recommendations? A cursory Google search doesn't turn up much, other than a free score site with some prospects. Thanks.
My a finger is sounding quite bad. I have been trying to grow up the left side out more for a more gradual ramp but it’s just not growing (maybe the natural shape of my finger is weird)? Any advice?
Anyone have any solid referals for luthiers in town? I have to have someone install a pick up inside my La Patrie.
Hi! My little arrangement is available on my Patreon if you like it!
I can read completely fine without having to think until there are key signatures or notes after the seventh fret. Right now I'm doing matteo carcassi's 9th study and I'm having trouble identifying notes. Any tips on how I can improve my reading ability?
Hi everyone, today I have come with an odd request. I am going to perform a research on what makes a guitar string of good quality and good sound. For this, I need a reccomendation of strings to test out. Ranging from Terrible, to Glorious. Could everyone please provide their own experience with the strings you have used, and please provide strings that you believe may deserve a spot to be tested. Thank you all!
Hello. How do you guys go about playing strict passages using i,m,i,m when your middle finger is longer. Particularly in reference to rest strokes. Thanks guys!
Hello, I’m trying to expand my repertoire with pieces that were written specifically for the guitar.
To elaborate, I love playing Tarrega because the music is so beautiful and plays extremely well on the guitar. Pieces originally composed for piano for example are pretty, but not as fun to play imo. It’s just a different vibe.
My all time favorite is Capricho Arabe by Francisco Tarrega, so if you have similar taste let me know your recommendations :)
My secondary guitar self destructed the other day. It's the one I use for teaching and gigs that I don't want to bring my nice guitar for. Looking for recommendations for a replacement. Looking for a cutaway and it must sound decent plugged in or acoustic, and as always playability is king. Also, I'm thinking a seven string would be fun to have something different to play with. I'm leaning heavily towards the kremona fiesta 7 string with laminated back and sides (f65cw-7s-ve). Price range is flexible, but aiming for roughly $1500 range. Thanks!
