    Look someone already replied. Just because someone asked a stupid question does not mean you you have to make a sarcastic answer. Besides I already play left handed guitar I just strum up when you strum down on right handed guitar.

    either your saddle or neck it too low. the vibration you hear is a string (s) making contact with the fret board. Lower one or raise the other and the vibration will subside or lessen. Hard strums tend to carry lots of vibration regardless

    its the same as right handed, same notes same strings, just you use your left hand where they use there right

    223sleepy – Long nails are essential for volume with this type of playing. Not to long though and they must be shaped at an angle so the string will glide off without catching an edge of your nail (too trebley), it takes experimentation to get what is right for you.

    Make sure the guitar is properly tuned. If the tuning is too “low” you will get excessive vibration.

    this strings vibrate because they are creating sound. a possible solution is to stop playing, or take the strings off your guitar. however, you’ll be sacrificing playability

    for acoustic guitar you kind of need long nails, for accuracy and it sounds way better.

    My teacher says its important to have nails not too long and not too short for playing guitar. I play my guitar with nails, but play your guitar the way you feel more comfortable.

    Does it matter whether you have long nails or not? I see alot of that. Just wonderin if its somethin that is for classical players. Cant you just use the finger and not the nail? (also im for the “if it sounds good, then its right” side of playing).

    great video. i have had my guitar for several weeks now and the strings seem to vibrate excessively when they are strummed. can anyone explain a possible cause for this and/or a solution?

    One other thing, there are many ways to play a P stroke successfully. You can have an active P tip and one way of thinking of it is to extend from all three P joints together and then flex from all three joints. Your demo is quite good, but notice that you do not snap (extend) the the P back quickly, but quite slowly. In even the most rapid arpeggios the individual fingers/thumb do not have to move rapidly.

    The thumb is connected to the other fingers, not independent. Also, genius, how come you say one thing and demonstrate another. YOU DO NOT IMMEDIATELY RETURN YOUR THUMB IN THE VIDEO WHEN YOU PLAY THE ARPEGGIO, in fact, you do it correctly. Also, genius, you talk about the thumb doing one thing and then you say the OTHER FINGERS do this too implying that the thumb is a finger. Tsk, Tsk.

    The thumb is not even a finger, genius. Its technically an appendage. Don’t try to argue semantics ether, as you use the word “other”. Biomechanically it is very separate. You can absolutely move your hand all around while keeping your thumb perfectly stationary through minor adjustments. After a while it becomes pure instinct. Or have you never heard of the piano? That skill transitioned easily when I started learning to play guitar. And helps quite a bit I might add.

    This guy holds his guitar wrong. You’re not supposed to hold a classical guitar on your lap like that. You hold it more upright in classical, kind of the same position you’d play a cello in

    for me any hand positioning will do as long as it will sound right and correct.

    Why should the hand be at a different angle when playing a rest stroke scale? If you are playing rest stroke the finger is striking the string below it. If playing free stroke i.e arpeggio you are not. Rest stroke requires a slight deviation to facilitate the different stroke. The smaller the change the better but there is a change. There are many small changes in hand position required. Changing tone colors for example. What about a tremelo?
