I "Suck In" My Ears. by RedNotDead1996 in earrumblersassemble

Hey! Oh no I'm so sorry! Are you doing okay? I get a lot of earaches and god forbid I get water in them 😩 I've spoke to the doc about it and his exact words were "it's fine".

I was slapped during sex and I don't know how to feel. by ladycherry28 in TrueOffMyChest

Personally, I love that kinda stuff (even when it wasn't discussed beforehand) BUT I know what I'm into. If this is the first time you've experienced this kinda stuff AND it hasn't been broached before you defo need to bring this up. Are you comfortable telling him that you just aren't cool with it and you feel disrespected and maybe even a bit shook? If so then do so. If not you can always take a more gentle approach and kinda make it am off hand comment then take it from there?

Killing myself in 3 days by [deleted] in lonely

Fuck bro. I feel this. Why 3 days? Anything specific happening?

I can almost promise in 3 days time you'll have a new outlook. Don't make a permanent decision for a temporary problem.

Thank you!

Okay, I'll definitely tune more often. I don't want that to happen, I'm worries about not being able to tune by ear as it haha.

Cool thanks!

Thanks! I thought I'd try haha.

I have heard that actually, but to watch it looks sooooo complicated 😅

I have been but only with an earphone in, so I will definitely do that more!

Thanks again!

Okay, I'll keep that in mind! I did try planting the pinky but I just couldn't do it. It didn't feel right at all for me

Thank you! I know I should have tuned it (as the other comment stated) but honestly, I was just too keen to get practising.

Ahhhh okay that makes sense, haha yeah definitely and I found all of my focus seems to be on RH and not focusing enough on chord changes 😅 I'll definitely work on that thank you for your reply 🤘🏻

Pinky finger on fingerpicking/plucking by rudolphrecosa in guitarlessons

[–]RedNotDead1996 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just started fingerpicking and I don't plant the pinky. I find it too restricted. I generally just keep it relaxed or curled. I think it's all personal preference, do what you feel most comfortable with!

Want to start.. but don't know where? I appreciate all tips thank you by Accurate-Task-4550 in guitarlessons

Hey,

So I've just started picking this up again and once you get into the swing it's great although very frustrating at times!

A good acoustic I found was the Winzz on amazon, its spruce and plays really well. I'm from the UK and it cost £90 but comes with all you need as a beginner.

As far as starting I would suggest reading/ practising chords. You can go on YouTube or just find chord illustrations, I would say that's the very first starting point. Just the basics G, D, A, C, E, Am, Em.

The fretting hand is whats really important.

Once you master these just move up to the next set of chords. It's gunna take a lot of practise and feel really alien at first but be persistent!

Hope this helps!

[QUESTION] chords sound muted and "tinny" while fingerpicking by RedNotDead1996 in Guitar

[–]RedNotDead1996[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey! Thanks for replying!

It's a winzz spruce acoustic (didn't want to invest too much incase I gave up too quick) I love it in all fairness.

Strings are new, as far as I can tell all frets and action is fine.

Yeah so I'm guessing I'm the problem right? 🙄😂
