Hey Gary - for me the math goes like this: the more I have to stretch, the more I pull my thumb lower on the back of the neck I'll show you in a movie, aye?

Im sure he does..... he is a doctor afterall, so im guessing he's quite a clever chap thats quite a clever exercise, I like it. cheers for posting it dude. Cool mate. You can move it all over the neck and also play it on every string. It's a killer exercise. Be sure that you don't hurt yourself with it. Classical Guitar really helped me a TON with finger independence. There are so many etudes where you are playing a partial chord with several fingers moving one or two fingers to create a moving melody line. Part of why I am always suggesting folks get a classical guitar in addition to their acoustic and electric and learn just a few bits on Classical. Not to mention the right hand picking work that is required which can also be applied in very interesting ways But you have to remember that especially here in the states, classical guitar as an instrument is a bit more rare IMHO than finding that someone has an electric and one acoustic. That's quite common. Less common is finding someone with electric, acoustic and nylon string classical. Also, finding instruction for classical is a pinch harder than finding instruction for electric, acoustic, even banjo. The first classical instructor I ever ran across wasn't until college! There was certainly no classical guitar instruction in high school or my local music stores. QUICK POLL: WHO HAS A NYLON STRING/CLASSICAL GUITAR? WHO HAS HAD ANY CLASSICAL GUITAR PERSONAL INSTRUCTION? Todd Can't agree more with you. I have a nylon guitar and these guitars are something very easy to find here. Even in houses where nobody plays music, you can find nylon guitar. I started to play on one of these guitars because my father had one from his teenager years. Regarding instruction, I just did 2 years at the conservatory where the main instrument was classical guitar. From time to time I try to learn a new classical piece since it is a very good training and also it's very funny to play, at least for me.

I think the ring finger and little finger share some tendons which is why it is hard to move them independantly.
This thread is very persuasive, I think I'll go back and add this exercise to my 'routine' -------------------- My SoundCloud

I think everyone should be practicing a classical piece/lesson in their routine. I was doing it & let it slip which is why I appreciate your post.

HA! not at all matey The whole thread has been really helpful. Thanks I knew you were working on it as well. I was getting worried I was monopolizing the thread. Obviously I have found the topic quite interesting. -------------------- |
