[Guitar Right hand technique help.]

About that:

1. The nails doesn’t let it stay and hand keeps on slipping and eventually gets tense. 
 

2. I’ve been playing 2+ years like this so how do I “unlearn” and learn again efficiently 

[Guitar Right hand technique help.]

I have been playing like this over many years, so much so that this feels comfortable and when i try to correct it my right hand starts to pain. 
I really just came to know that i was playing wrong when I was having a hard time muting strings. How do i correct this. As you can see my whole hand rests on the bottom and then it curves up and I extend my fingers to play. 
any help appreciated

Thanks!

Nice playing.

Did you create all parts or did you play it over a backing track?

Wim.

Yup.. created all parts in GarageBand itself. 
Thanks!

[Help with triads.]

I’m hooked on these workouts as well! Finally helped me learn the fretboard. 
I practice fingerpick as well. I do a round of fingerpicking, arpeggios, hybrid picking and strumming in all keys, but having problems with strumming. 
I want to do strumming like Steve does in the triads workout video. But keep hitting wrong(extra) strings. 
 

Practiced muting, but I found that a controlled movement of the right hand made it possible. Kinda hard though.

Thanks for the replies!

I have always found muting a bit hard. Will look into it on YouTube. 
Thanks!!

[Help with triads.]

Hello everyone ,

So I’m currently doing the triads live lesson and have memorised the major shapes and everything’s all nice and good. 
But there’s problems with right hand technique. 
Whenever I strum, I keep hitting the “undesirable” strings. 
As in while playing 1-3 string set triads. I keep hitting the 4th string accidentally. 
How do I improve my technique. Can you guide me through some exercises?

Thanks!

[Live Lesson: February 11th - Triads (Part 1/3) - Major Triads]

Hey everyone. I’m having problems with strumming hand. How to not strum other strings? In 1-3 string set triads, I keep accidentally hitting the forth string. 
thanks

[Bridge lifting up.]

Yup that’s true. Especially in my city it would be like searching for a needle in a hay sack. 
Now that you have mentioned. It could be the environment, since its may and its getting 42 degree Celsius so it could be affecting the glue. 

 

[Bridge lifting up.]

Yes it’s the only guitar I have ☹️
I feel bad because I was making good progress on barre chords after a long time and if I stop playing now all the momentum will be lost. 

[Bridge lifting up.]

Hello guys. 
I have a Fender SA-105CE. Been playing it for 4 years. Today i noticed a small gap in the middle part of the bridge and guitar body. 
now I know that its a simple repair which any guitar repair expert can do. But since there is lockdown, I can’t get it repaired. So my question is should I keep playing it or Should I de-string the guitar and keep it till repaired? I have attached a photo. It’s difficult to see. Mostly its on the middle part. The sides are still glued to the body. 

[Problem with picking hand technique.]

I have started the course and I don’t know what I’m doing wrong, my picking arm pains a lot while playing. I have tried slowing down and all but not able to understand if I’m relaxing my hand or not. Not able to progress. Please help. 

Thanks

[Starting with the course]

Hello everyone! And thanks for your advices!

I slowed down to 40 BPM and not everything’s fine because now I can notice the tension building up and consciously let go of it. 

[Starting with the course]

I’ve been observing my practice and I noticed that my right hand becomes tense only in the pattern 2 exercises ( thumb-3-2-1). In the other exercises my hand stays relaxed, even while playing estudio and malinguana. 

I’ve tried slowing down the tempo but now that I focus on relaxing my right hand, it just tenses up more. ?

[Starting with the course]

Hello everyone!

im just starting out with the course and I am currently on session 1. 

Im pretty good at 82 BPM at all the exercises but when I speed up to 92 BPM, I feel a bit tense in my right hand and the muscles(of hand) start getting sore like the feeling you get when you do high volume bicep curles. 

How do I play so that my right hand doesn’t get too tense or is it ok to feel a bit tension. ?

[Notes on the fretboard.]

How do I memorise the notes on the fretboard. I’ve memorised the notes on 1st, 5th and 6th string. But having a hard time memorising the notes on other strings.
