1. Get the guitar higher to get a better grip on the neck. Playing abilities > Looks.
2. Practice standing. :-) |

QUOTE (Frederik @ Aug 2 2009, 11:47 PM)  thanks for the replies everyone  though those advises were expected, though there were a cool trick that wouldn't make me look like the 60'ties  nej jeg er frederik lambert. fra aalborg -Frederik Well there might be one trick or more like hint. Have you seen how Satch holds guitar? Headstock is pretty high while body is low so it's kind a narrow position. This allows you more comfort for your fretting hand but your picking might suffer cause bridge is now lower. And yeah, Satch is well know by his legato playing, not picking.
