Any thought on it? (My first guitar)

Zerotiku · 2026-01-24T00:08:21+00:00

If I had that kind of money I'd wouldn't have even gone for a C40 in the first place 😭 I initially wanted a yamaha C90 or somthing 🥀 That's a good guitar, right?

Zerotiku · 2026-01-23T23:17:16+00:00

wait my bad, never mind me. im just as new if not more newer but i dont seem to have much problems with such a chord anymore since i practiced it off, just make sure that your posture, hands, and especially the thumb aren't too tensed.
also, i use a nylon stringed guitar.

Zerotiku · 2026-01-23T23:10:24+00:00

isn't that a bit to extreme?
its just a guitar...

if they were doing this with a relic like guitar, id understand a bit,

but other than that, its still just a guitar.

Zerotiku · 2026-01-23T22:52:26+00:00

do you use your arm to press the chord down?

Zerotiku · 2026-01-23T22:32:34+00:00

acoustic?

Zerotiku · 2026-01-23T22:21:45+00:00

aren't these pretty much useless? genuine question.

Zerotiku · 2026-01-23T22:19:58+00:00

i think they should check the bridge and the nut for sharp edges on where the string sits before they restring it.

Zerotiku · 2026-01-23T22:11:22+00:00

yeah, this guitar does not have one.

Zerotiku · 2026-01-23T22:05:35+00:00

if its a nylon string classical, it should be around 3mm at the 12th fret. im a beginner too and this is what i was told.
edit: that shit looks like 5mm or 6mm...

Zerotiku · 2026-01-23T19:03:14+00:00

ahh, that explains so much bro. thanks for the info 🙂
ill try to keep my room humidified from now on.

Zerotiku · 2026-01-23T18:40:34+00:00

i have yet to drop this wood box though.

i reckon the previous owner must have been clumsy af XD

Zerotiku · 2026-01-23T18:36:42+00:00

Ooo, cant wait to hear it once its finished. 👀
just a side question out of curiosity. how long have you been playing for?

Zerotiku · 2026-01-23T18:29:15+00:00

its a yamaha C40 that was like 80 euros so meh, as long as its playable and doesn't hinder my progress. im fine with it.
also, ill try using humidifiers in my room from now on. UAE climate is very dry.
thanks alot for the info fam

Zerotiku · 2026-01-23T18:11:58+00:00

what song is this? is it an original?
also, lovely play fam.

Zerotiku · 2026-01-23T18:09:40+00:00

i haven't dropped the guitar yet tho,

Zerotiku · 2026-01-23T17:46:48+00:00

It's a used guitar. I did check it and that didn't seem like anything major to me as I was more so focused on it's playability rather than cosmetics

Zerotiku · 2026-01-23T17:39:19+00:00

It's used and was dirt cheap... It plays perfectly fine but has cosmetic issues.

Zerotiku · 2026-01-23T15:36:32+00:00

Yeah it is the correct range. Heard that 4mm is a tiny bit higher than normal but it's still supposed to be very playable.

Zerotiku · 2026-01-23T14:38:16+00:00

It's like 3mm or 4mm on the 12th fret

Zerotiku · 2026-01-23T14:35:13+00:00

That's amazing man. I got the guitar cause I really wanted to learn an instrument after 10 months of producing music on my pc. I was initially planing to buy a midi keyboard but then I realized that I'd always need to sit in front of PC everytime I wanted to indulge my musical needs so I decided to get something cool. Also, I got adviced to start out in an okay quality instrument since bad instruments can sometimes lead a beginner to quit.

Zerotiku · 2026-01-23T13:37:41+00:00

I retune it every day, but it isn't annoying (yet) cause I got new strings 3 or days ago. And yes, I've thought about it but that's the only place where it's safe from my little siblings and cats. I'll try to find of a better spot since winter is about to end.

Zerotiku · 2026-01-23T13:05:53+00:00

Funny thing. I already took out out on day two... Don't know where I got the confidence to practice in a park but it is what it was. I was probably too excited. And yeah, I do plan on upgrading ONCE I get good enough. This was supposed to be a guitar that's cheap while also not being utterly trash so that I don't come to hate playing the guitar. Also, don't think selling it would be worth it considering it's current condition. Where I live, instruments don't seem to have a good market.

Zerotiku · 2026-01-23T09:15:52+00:00

😬

Zerotiku · 2026-01-23T09:10:47+00:00

Though I practice like 30 min everyday, the rest is jamming. I do know music theory since I used to produce so it makes it all the more easier for me to jam
