I’m looking at different types of guitars. Many years ago I had a 12 string made by Penco, fine Japanese manufacturer of guitars and steel shelving units.

It is also an example of how to reinforce your learning. By teaching what you learn, your learning becomes deeply saturated into your memory. Keep sharing, in more ways than one. 🙂

  Nice start Macy! Here are a few suggestion: 1. Use a guitar strap so that you don’t have to hold and play the guitar at the same time. A strap will allow your hands more range of motion. 2. Look at the video and pay close attention to your wrist. At times your wrist is flat and at times it is in the correct curled position. When you push your…Read more
