Adjust Your Guitar Strap For Tip-Top Playing

In this video, we're talking about where to set your guitar strap for optimal playing.

I had a lot of trouble with this when I started playing guitar in my teens. I wanted to look like Slash when I played. But I practiced sitting down with the guitar at the usual height. So it was impossible when I stood up and tried to play with the guitar at my knees!

What's The Solution?

The bottom line is that we should play at the same height in practice as in performance. That way, our arms, wrist, and body are used to that position. When it comes to gigs, we'll feel natural and comfortable.

So if you want to play sitting down, practice when sitting down too. If you want to look like Slash, practice standing up with the guitar at knee height! :)

Easy peasy, but this will make a massive difference in your performances. :)
