nope nothing like that when you first start your fingers dont seem to want to move , you then start doing spider drills to get the m to move and your picking hand hits the wrong strings from time to time , its slow going and you have to tough it out , if you are doing it right your fingers are aching at the tips , to say this is how a beginner can sound is a bad expectation this is a year down the road at least

I paid a guy $100 to tune up my guitar (Clapton Strat with 11's as far off the fretboard as I could get 'em) and he put Ernie Ball 9's on it and lowered the action as low as it could go. I just wanted him to fix my cable jack which was loose, clean it up and put some new *good* strings on there and that's all he did. Needless to say, I sat right there playing the fuck out of every guitar in his shop until he fixed it. "Luthier" my ass.

[@AutoSonic495]

Question as a beginner myself, how do you lower that?

[@MrCrabs-ue9sx]

@AutoSonic depends on what kind of guitar, but there is a rod that runs through the neck. That needs to be tightened to lower the strings. There is a little plastic cover on the bottom of the headstock. That's where you tighten the rod. Should be an hex key( Allen wrench) of some sort. Also the bridge nut on the body may need to be lowered. That requires removing all strings. Pulling the nut out of the bridge base and sanding the bottom edge of the nut with some 80 or 100 grit sandpaper flat on a table. It won't take much.

[@The_sinner_Jim_Whitney]

That string action looks the way it feels the first time, I'll give you that.

[@volpedog1738]

Let's use the factitious video to gleam a few lessons from his playing. 1) scales, he's using them, specifically minor pentatonic. Learning these basically lets you riff on any chord by playing its corresponding scale. Melodies are often built on these too ; 2) the thumb is great for playing low notes on the E string, especially when you are riffing on the high strings; and 3) finger placement is important, so notice his positioning. He is using the tips of his fingers mostly, pressing firmly into the string. This will yield a more precise sound than the flats of your fingers will. Hope everyone has a great day

The Last Olympian packs so much in 129,000 words. I think people are over exaggerating just how mature this series gets. There’s definitely a tonal shift in the third book and more mature underlying themes get added as the series progresses but it never becomes quite as dark as Harry Potter’s later books did.

[@brettjames9088]

The guitar def gonna sound good if you got high action, question is whether you can play it. They reckon SRV used anything from 12 to 17 gauge strings and ridiculously high action. His tech would raise it until he ran out of screw thread. This guy seems heavy influenced by Texas blues so probably copying him. The odd thing is SRV probably tuned down half a tone or so like Hendrix which would negate a lot of the effect of heavier strings and high action. Either way, if you can play it like that, it sounds like bells ringing.

My fingers hurt from just watching a guitar with this very high action..

[@mikewelch3747]

People are born to play guitar. Some people are able to move their hands and fingers in ways that isn't possible. There is no explanation why they can do it, they just can. They have the power TO CONTROL SOUND and its not fair and giutarists like this guy are so smug

[@waynebeck6517]

Guitar tech: how do you like your action? Dude: nothing can stop me im all the way up

[@anakperantau9516]

He can see my flight from a guitar strings.. Damn..

[@achmadrizaldi9024]

Me learning guitar at 8 y.o: "So, this single string is E, if I put my finger here is F, and here is G. Okay I get it. I can practice with this sheet music that my teacher gave me c: ... Wait, what is this??" -"It's an eighth note, a little faster than the quarter note." -"... Can I leave it there? I don't wanna practice guitar anymore." -"Wait, wait, do you wanna know what is a chord?" -"Let me see." -"Look, this is a chord." -"WHAT THE HECK MORE THAN ONE FINGER?? I DEFINETELY QUIT." That's the story of how I abandoned my guitar for 6 years gathering dust in a closet.

That action is higher than Drake's 🅿️🅿️

[@blakko7114]

i saw this video 30 times and i just now got that he has the action so high to make it harder (and to feel like a beginner)

[@EmanuelHedberg]

😄👏👏👍👍 Your are actually like the only one who really really understood my bad and stupid joke 😅👍👏 thank you ❤️🙏

[@martinis801]

The real way to know how it feels it to take a left-handed guitar!

[@cchharlie]

Hahaha oooh! That’s what it is!

[@predatorofthehaters4987]

A high string action gets you a better tone on a strat.

[@blakko7114]

that's not a strat @@predatorofthehaters4987

[@MetallicAGirl14]

So glad my first guitar didn’t have action this high, I would have quit the next day. 😂

[@EmanuelHedberg]

😅

[@KawaiLex]

Well mine did and i am still didn't quit (i have a better on now)

[@liswingeorge3185]

i was in verge of that and saw this video now I'm rethinking that decision 😄.

[@YuhHuhNuhUh]

My first guitar was that bad, when I finally got a decent guitar a year later it was so easy to play, I felt like a pro

[@DeletedUser73926]

WAIT THATS NOT NORMAL?? I literally did stop playing so soon because it felt so clunky to play I picked up saxophone and have just been playing it since

[@pritikajain6407]

As a beginner i can confirm u that this is exactly how I played for the first time

[@CRAZYCANUCKTV]

Wow those strings have reached new heights, literally!

[@mbplove]

Luthier: how high do you want your action sir. Customer: Yes

[@wesleyturner1979]

😂

[@roscoepcoltrane23]

The first thing I noticed. No fret buzz.

[@brnrik500]

The positive result of high action. His hands dont look grizzled either?

[@ranjansarma2994]

It is machine made

[@bigtom1001]

.. "cypress hill high please"

[@SanchitC]

I don’t think I’ll ever be able to replicate the feeling I got the first time I played an electric guitar through an amplifier. It was actual ecstasy.

[@niK-si5zp]

Try turning it up side down

[@mintgreenpaint6776]

HOLY SHIT YES. I started “playing” guitar not even a week ago and as soon as I plugged the electric guitar to the amplifier I felt like I was ascending to heaven or something lol

[@anonymoususer3888]

haha same! I've been playing the guitar for a year and a half, but I recently got an electric guitar and I was like "HOLY SHIT IT'S SO DAMN COOL" my poor sister was hanging out with me and had to deal with me going "dude listen how how electric this sounds, listen (strums chord)" for like 30 minutes

[@jblasutavario9549]

I discovered that today

[@jblasutavario9549]

​@@niK-si5zp i did. Neighbours hate me more now.

[@Chaziltasm]

I converted to bass. Now that I'm so comfortable with a bass neck, a guitar feels like the tiniest thing. I hate it xD

[@billyshane3804]

The action on that guitar is higher than Brian Jones and Jimi Hendrix at a Bob Dylan concert.

[@michaelhn11]

How do you have such good intonation with high action I love it Edit: autocorrect is dumb lol

[@leocantaim]

Cant you adjust the action at the bottom of the guitar?

[@zoksss5323]

@@leocantaim its just part of action height. You need to ajust trussrod, nut slot depth and bridge saddle height (on the bottom of guitar)

[@ryanpatrick3779]

The Internet is fake that's how 😂

[@thefamilyman4667]

@@zoksss5323 yes truss rod works but not the healthiest way for the neck he most probably adjusted the saddle height

[@michaelhn11]

@@thefamilyman4667 I imagine the nut is higher than usual too looking at how ridiculous the action is

Mah boi that action is higher snoop dog but sick playin
