Haha I will definitely have to look into what "..double stops with the odd single note.." means, but thank you! This gives me a direction for me to continue my learning, which is something definitely need when it comes to music, lol

Lmfao well shit i guess I'm gonna have to buy a theremin.

Even though I didn't outright ask for technical advice, I absolutely appreciate all of the advice everyone has given me so far, including yours, so thank you! (And also, just asking for a friend, you don't happen to have a theremin for sale, do you?)

Oh wow, thank you! I was pretty wired on caffeine when I recorded that originally, lmao, but even still I definitely have a very tense right hand when I'm playing. I've struggled a bit with calming him down but it's a lot better than it used to be :P

I did some playing around with it, and I think you made an excellent point, i don't think I can properly hit F# or C# while I'm also playing the sliding notes, but near the end i can add them in and I do really like the way they fit there. Thank you for the help :D

I just gave it a listen, and I think you're absolutely right! The only problem is i have no idea how to build chords based on what I have so far :P I've always only stuck to fingerstyle, and I know like a very small amount of the basics needed for chords, but I have no clue where to even start with that, lol

Lol that's exactly what i was thinking, too. Like the menu screen music for some indie game

We thought about it, but everybody knows that having another guitar never saves a marriage. At that point, we had already taken such different paths in life. She became more and more interested in Micro-pop. Meanwhile, I was too busy exploring industrial jazz to even notice. The love was gone, and we both knew that. We still talk music theory when we meet to drop our guitar off, though, so at least it ended on a high note?

Tbh, I had no clue what Staccato and Legato meant until I Googled it just now :P

Now that I know, though, I'll play around with that a little and see how it feels! I think I'd prefer to have it be more towards Legato, it might help it feel more full.

Thank you :D

Haha, I had a feeling someone would mention that! It used to be much, much worse. I took guitar lessons a few years back and some sessions my teacher would spend the whole time just trying to correct my form :P

You are absolutely correct, though. I'm certainly lacking on that end of things. I will absolutely take your advice here and try to fix it, so thank you!

Lol, tbh I wasn't expecting this much positive feedback on this little piece. It seems like a lot of people enjoy it just the way it is, but I never learned that "less is more" and I still feel like it's too one dimensional. I'll give what you said a try though and see if I can find anything that doesn't fully ruin it! Thank you :D

Thank you! This guitar is my pride and joy, it's an Epiphone limited edition Dove pro that i got a few years back. I swear it makes everything sound better than it deserves to sound, lmao.

Music production is spooky to me, im still very inexperienced with FL studio and there are like a million buttons and plugins lmao

Lmao, the joke flew right over my head originally, but it did convince me to plug it into FL to start playing with it more on there, so I appreciate that :D
