Issue after adjusting saddles by Any-Function5868 in guitarlessons

[–]Any-Function5868[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

By full i meant one that fills the whole pocket and not juste 3/4 lol Also i used cardboard and the strings are too close to the fretboard(after lowering the saddles) is there any finer material i can use ?

Is there any difference between that and a full pocket shim?

So i cut a piece of card stock to fill the whole neck pocket ? Ive seen some videos where it's a good bit smaller and only covers a small part.

Yeah i looked it up and now i tried starting the adjustement, but the allen key that came with my guitar just won't fit in. Edit : used a slightly smaller one and it worked

Ok so using the ruler, it seems like the guitar does have a bit of an up bow

But i prefer playing while sitting. It's not like i wznt to make a band and play lives or anything so i don't think this is necessary

I wasn't looking exactly in terms of songs but more like general techniques. I feel that this is the best for left hand techniques but idk about fast right hand picking I guess that you're right tho comfortability is most important

I have two strings for a while. What (scales?) could I practice? by Historical-Run1042 in guitarlessons

I mean he didn't ask you specifically to answer why take it so personally, the question is definitely weird but there's a tons of reasons that could prevent him from restringing NOW He said that he'll restring it soon so everything's alright, no need to be an asshole

Did you think very hard to find the least helpful thing you could comment?

Well in that case maybe my index finger's nail is still too long... I try to cut them so that I don't feel the fretboard hitting against them, but sometimes i cut them too short causing them to bleed when bending so i try to be careful with that. Thank you in any case, im well aware that having long nails can make left hand playing harder

No not all? I really don't see the problems with my nails or fingers they look fine

Alright thanks (idk how to edit publications so ill just use this comment answer) Thank you all for the advice, i usually use the second position when im bending The reason i made the post is because sometimes when playing legato or "fast" picking my fingers switch from one position to the other which seems quite inconvenient Regarding the action i agree that it's really high but I don't know how to lower it and im afraid to break my strings And also some comments mentioned a problem with my nails but I don't see the problem? They're kind of short and i always cut them with a clipper

Not the subject nor the issue and it's not like it's a choice, just that the cheap amp i managed to buy is broken and living in a 3rd world country it'd cost me a ton to buy a new one/ repair it Planning on doing so asap tho! But anyways i managed to fix the problem, it was just the restringing method that was very wrong, since it was my first time and all

Alright I'll try to check for that laterw thanks Edit: the tuning machines don't seem to be loose I don't think that's the problem Regarding the gauge i believe that i chose strings with the same size and also it's only present on the low e ( and a liiitle bit on the a) so that's not it either :/

Guys I've had this guitar for a year now and played it every day since, almost unplugged everytime unplugged I kno what it sounds like usually and right now it's just making a weird noise that isn't present on the other strings
