    that plucking technique is golden. I never knew of that and no one at school taught me that too. I always thought you need unrealistic accuracy, timing and strength to pull off a pull off, but you showed me a more realistic way. Thank you!

    This has been very helpful in understanding slurs to the terms Hammer-on and Pull-off. I see I was approaching it all wrong. Thanks for clearing it up for me.

    You are doing such an excellent job here!
    Your explanations are on point, you speak well with minimum edits and your execution and sound of examples are exemplary.
    Your audio recording is done well . (how do you record audio?) Your lighting is unobtrusive and well done.
    You have a very fitting, condensed no nonsense production style and offer great information in a very accessible way.
    Big kudos.

      Thanks! It's all improvised and on the fly, but I do teach for a living so that helps. All my gear is listed here: www.thisisclassicalguitar.com/classical-guitar-store-reviews/

    my hammer ons were so quiet, and it turns out I wasn't going down perpendicular to the fretboard. Adjusting that made a huge difference

    Excellent video! I have a question. When I try the slurs from the open string to the third and fourth frets as shown around 5:37, I can hear the back of the string as well. The string from the nut to the fret just before the note i'm playing vibrates as well as my slurred notes, and the sound is quite annoying. For example, if I slur from the low E to a third fret G, I can hear a high pitched "ting" as well as the G note. Of course, this is only a problem for slurs from the open strings. Do you have any advice on how to minimise this sound? Especially when I play faster pieces and I tend to use more strength from my fingers, hearing this "ting" makes my playing sound quite messy

    I have a question regarding which muscles are activated during pull offs. From what I understand it is a compound movement which involves both the flexors and extensors in the forearm. The extensor is used to lift the finger off the string, whilst the flexor is used to give the finger a downward force (towards the floor), which effectually plucks the string.
    Did I grasp this correctly?
    I a way this is also a contradiction for me, as the use of two opposing muscles/forces will logically cause stiffness in the finger, hindering its mobility.
    Would you have any thoughts?

    • @Thisisclassicalguitar
      @Thisisclassicalguitar  6 лет назад +1

      The simplest way to describe the movement is to bring the fingers in toward the palm as the fingers are naturally designed to do. That said, a downward flick (towards the floor) using very little actually strength pretty accurate. Practice using the "left hand rest stroke" where your downward pluck results in the left hand finger resting on the string below (except when slurring the 1st string of course).

    Do you think doing an ascending and descending chromatic scale would be a good idea to practice slurs ?

    • @Thisisclassicalguitar
      @Thisisclassicalguitar  3 года назад

      Ya, any creative way to practice slurs is excellent practice. I guess some of these generic exercises do cover more ground more quickly though.

      @@Thisisclassicalguitar ok thanks alot for the quick response. I guess just switching it up once a while keeps the motivation up. Just wanted to to say you are really a great teacher and I profoundly appreciate your efforts. Already got your technique book and it is really awesome. It sure does help to structure practice in a thought out way. Keep it up !

    Hi
    You are very skilled
    Could you tell me how it could become faster in playing the bar chord
    I play well but when the track is like canon in d or Asturias I have mistakes, the problem is in my slow playing the bar chord
    How can I solve this problem

    • @Thisisclassicalguitar
      @Thisisclassicalguitar  6 лет назад

      Most of the time this is related to tension in the hands and precision issues. Do you practice barring exercises every day?
