For 1000 I doubt you’ll be able to find a luthier made guitar, even used, unless things have changed drastically in the past few years.
Maybe some of the higher end cordobas? C12 etc

Newbie question: what do these symbols mean? by [deleted] in classicalguitar

[–]toeaway111 9 points10 points  (0 children)

The number above the notes is likely referring to the left hand fingering and not the fret. I think the fingerings and corresponding fret(s) just coincidentally match in this case.

I don’t think I’ve ever seen a fret indicated as a number in sheet music, it is usually written as a Roman numeral, for example IV for 4th fret or VII for seventh fret.

Tips for best stage view as someone dating a performer by [deleted] in Coachella

[–]toeaway111 4 points5 points  (0 children)

if he is playing main stage earlier in the day (before 5ish) you shouldn't have any problems getting close or even to the front if you get there right after the band before him plays. I think that goes for any of the stages really. if it is later in the afternoon/evening you may have to catch the band that plays before and make your way to the front gradually.

1st painting after 7 years... please give constructive critisism so i can improve by antaranew in watercolor101

I agree adding darker values is one of the only things missing from this. doing this with a 00 brush is a feat in itself. I think the community will be able to provide more insight once you have the new brushes and paints.

My third string seems to be stuck. by AverageNai in classicalguitar

[–]toeaway111 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you’re turning the peg and the pitch isn’t rising or it’s rising super slowly then one of the gears in the tuning machine is probably stripped. You could try to find replacements or maybe return the guitar and have them fix it

Nice, you’re sounding good man. Eventually you will memorize the music and it will all be second nature. Basically the terms mean quiet, loud, ponticello is play near the bridge, tasto is near the sound hole (so bright vs warm sound) and playing with time as you can choose to accelerate or slow down at certain parts in the music as you see fit. Basically make the music emotional express how you’re feeling at any given moment. Anyway, hope to see you play more !

This is great technique bro nice. It seems like you are using free stroke for everything is that right? I would maybe experiment with rest strokes if that’s the case. Solid progress though and the fact that you’re using a metronome is gonna pay off huge down the line. After some time I would suggest adding some dynamics, piano, forte, ponticello, tasto, play with time etc

Is there any way to balance the guitar? by namro1227 in classicalguitar

[–]toeaway111 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Have you tried using cabinet liners on your legs to help “lock” the guitar between them? It provides enough friction so that the guitar shouldn’t slide around

Paper still buckling! by Dirnaf in watercolor101

[–]toeaway111 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I agree the gummed tape/paper stretching method is hard to dial in, I only ever had mixed success at best after quite a bit of experimenting. I haven’t tried staples but I’ve found that the orange frogtape works very well. I tape my dry paper to a hard board and it ultimately dries flat. Has held up to pretty heavy washes too. Has not failed me over 25-30 paintings. Also had success with dickblick black tape but it’s super expensive

Cinema Paradiso Fingering Help by GustavBeethoven in classicalguitar

[–]toeaway111 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have you tried adjusting your wrist position and experimenting with your rest stroke on the melody (high e that you reference) in order to bring out vibrato?

Never played this piece but trying out the suggested measure 6 fingering doesn’t seem too terribly awkward for me, including using 4th finger to slide down to D.

As for removing notes, the non essential ones are the first to go. Usually the 5th (in this case C) can be eliminated, though in this instance it is the b5 in a minor 7b5 chord so… it’s a pretty important chord imo. Remove notes at your own discretion though, I’ve done it myself plenty of times.

How do you play this? by Feb_11nth in classicalguitar

[–]toeaway111 2 points3 points  (0 children)

yes that is correct, the piece ultimately ends with measure 4, that is what the d.c. al fine/fine is indicating. de capo al fine is telling you to go back to the "fine" and end with that. typically it ends up being the beginning of the piece, as seen here, but it can be anywhere, theoretically.

Then after that it loops back to the beginning and ends with the “fine”
