But, for some reason I find it more comfortable when I put the Guitarra on my left leg (I'm right-handed) and holding it as vertical as possible with no right hand resting/support on guitar. For my posture, I try to keep my spine erect, my back being vertical.<br /><br />I bookmarked your blog, I will be catching up from its old posts, read a few, They are really fun. So, thanks for that. About the consultation/lesson I do not want to bother you since, teaching people is delusive for an individual's time, yet very rewarding at the same time, a double-edged-sword of a deal. Yet, also If one teaches himself, most probably nowadays, reading some fine books or rummaging around the pile of scribbled data around the web and so forth... But, yeah mate, I will just be reading, for the rest, guitar is my solid friend on my times of recreation for my graphic creations.<br /><br />Peace, The Anonymous who first commented on a 2006 post in 2019.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35429900.post-80922871772440518872020-01-29T22:14:38.655+00:002020-01-29T22:14:38.655+00:00Is it okay to hold the guiter on a 70-89 degree wh...<i>Is it okay to hold the guiter on a 70-89 degree while playing it sitting on a regular chair?</i><br /><br />All I can ask is: are you comfortable playing in that position with that posture?<br /><br />Otherwise, I’ll have to confess I’m not sure what angle the 70–89 degrees is denoting. But this does remind me of <a href="https://improvisingguitar.blogspot.com/2008/01/vertical-guitarist.html" rel="nofollow">one of the old posts elsewhere</a> here.<br /><br />Thanks for reading.<br /><br />tig<br /><br />P.S.
