It's also the best position for electric guitar, and bass guitar. All ergonomic models from the last years let the people rest their instrument on their thigh easily to have that exact same position. Having tendinitis issues in my index finger, it helps a lot. Thanks for sharing this tip to everyone :D

Sometimes suction cups are not working. There is another guitar support on the clamps called HBBasic - might be interesting for someone.

Dang! This was a good video! Some of this is already covered in my “at home” self lessons syllabi ,however , there was a fair amount of really cool and useful tips that I had never been aware of. I fell off my roof in Dec. of 2009 and did a fracture on my L-1 lumbar and I used afoot stool for the first few years (before switching to a lift)so lower back pain has been a MAJOR hindrance to playing. Within 15 minutes I’m done in and I’m about ready to give up on classical guitar. It just dawned on me I have one of those lower back strap thingys. I’ll be trying that and these new tips. This video is such a blessing! Definitely one I’ll be coming back to from time to time as a refresher. Thank ya!! You got it girly girl! ❤❤

Thanks for the video, it is really helpful! I really love your content! I have some "debates" with my guitar teacher on the right hand position. He wants me to use the "Segovia" way of playing, with the right hand perpendicular with the strings for giving a bigger sound. I find the way you teach is more confortable to play (not completely perpendicular with the strings, playing with a slight angle). I'm trying to find a balance between the two. Anyway, it's really nice! :)

I think this is a really helpful video for beginners, especially. I started with classical later in life and have never had a great posture. I remember the terrible back pains learning with a footstool and cheap guitar. The enthusiasm and interest making me practice for hours, longer than I should have. Then the back aches the next day. One day, I got sick of it all. Bought an Ergoplay Tappert (same support my teacher uses) and a decent, serious learner guitar and....problems gone. :). The alternative I think was to give up, and I'm very glad I didn't. I honestly think for me (and my back) moving to a support saved my playing. Looking to try the guitarlift soon.

nice explanation , nice accent , i'm here with 2 main goals ,to learn play guitar the first one and to improve my vocabulary and comprehension in english , and your speech is of someone who has pretty relax and like to do these videos and then , i feel more focused by ppl that talking abt yours passions ty for that

Thanks a lot for this video and as always there are some interesting points in what you are claiming. However, I would urge you to add another problem a lot of classical guitarists have to face. Problems with the shoulders. When the position of the guitar, arms and hands is correct, including a straight spine everyone is adviced to first start relaxing. To begin with the shoulders. Keep them down as a lot of players tend to pull up their shoulders once a difficult part is in sight. I had a lot of shoulder problems just be putting tension on them for years. I had to change my playing and I must say, the bonus was that my playing now sounds more relaxed. (And it counts for the arms as well!)

Thanks Beatrix, that was super useful! In my enthusiasm after receiving my new classical guitar, I spent hours and hours playing it in a bad position (torso slightly turned, like I have done for years) and I hurt my back in the process. I see I was doing it all wrong, hope this will improve things, and the Guitarlift is next on my list!

I have told my students things like this forever, and I learned it because I wasn’t exactly taught everything that you were talking about. I had a great teacher. He did talk about posture, but one thing that I would add to all that is if you don’t do these things it could cause you problems later with your back or your shoulders Believe me, I don’t guitar players, who couldn’t play because they kept doing the wrong body positions and stretching the wrong way and turning their neck sideways and they have had problems with their hands and I’m talking about young people in the guitar program when we were like in 20 years old people that were young having problems with their body imagine if you don’t do these things and you’re in your 40s and you might start experiencing some really bad pain muscle cramps everything so basically do what she’s talking about because she’s not just talking she’s telling you things about yourself. It’s very important video here. I’m glad she did this. Good work, great work important work.

Comng from a piano that doesn't move at all to guitar was difficult. 45 years ago I began guitar flat picking steel string and right leg support, like most people. I got frustrated with unwanted movement of the guitar and always felt stiff trying to hold it in position. Then I switched to classical position and almost all fingerstyle playing with the steel string and left leg support and stand, but still a slippery guitar on the leg. Now after switching to nylon string classical guitar 7 years ago, I am still frustrated, and this year took a guitar strap and wrapped it around my back (not over the shoulder) pulling the guitar into my body for a very firm hold on the guitar even with both hands and arm off of it. So, stand, left leg support of the waste of the guitar, and a strap pulling the guitar into me. I think I am happy now. I now have an instrument almost as stable as a piano.

Good information Beatriz! And I like your sense of humor...I use Ergo Play guitar rest and what a difference in not having the left leg up in an awkward way. By the way, I can't tell you how much I enjoy your album called Journey! So mellow, relaxing and inspiring.😊

I have to agree on its simplicity and the versatility is simply great! One note on the chair: if someone's looking to buy a chair for playing guitar, I'd advice to take a look at piano benches, too. They start around 50 € and their big advantage is that their height is adjustable so one can finetune them to the length of their legs.

@@beatrixguitar nowadays it is really hard to find a quality educational video on fundamentals. Thanks again 🙏

This video is sooooo important. I am experimenting with the hand/finger position over the strings. I do not use nails or picks and instead get the soft sound of my flesh on stings. But the traditional striking style or almost claw finger position is pulling up on the stings instead of across like the thumb does. So, to get that better tone I am attempting to change my finger position to a slightly more open hand where the fingers are not in a 90-degree angle. The second knuckle, (middle knuckle) increased angle of about 70 degrees makes a much better tone, MUCH better for fingerstyle of the flesh tips. Tough to change this after 45 years on guitar, but going to continue.

Valeu!

Thank you

Hi Beatrix, I sometimes wonder if tarrega used a stool to remind him of the pedal on a piano and not much else 😂 i like to play standing up with a strap sometimes as this holds the guitar in a similar position as a foot stool and is comfy for me,sometimes if I can't get the space and peace I need indoors I can walk around in the garden lol.great video, self discipline really is key and knowing and practising these need to know fundementals is a good influence on personal style 😎 cheers

Another reason to avoid angling the guitar top upwards, the sound will emanate from the sound hole towards the ceiling rather than towards your audience. I have an experiment for you to try. With your arm resting in your normal position, strum the guitar then immediately lift your right arm off of the guitar. Do you hear the tone open up and volume increase? Do it again and lift your arm then put it back down and you will hear the sound open and then compress. An arm resting on the sound board stifles vibration, not allowing it to reach full resonance and volume. I install John Pearse armrests, or similar, on all my guitars just for that reason.

Great advice. I have struggled finding a comfortable position and naturally embraced the classical position. I am blessed or cursed with being 6'5" tall. Only classical guitars have felt comfortable to play.

Dear Beatrix, what guitarlift size should we buy? In the professional line there are different kinds of sizes. Thanks for sharing your videos with us!

Enjoy your videos Beatrix - thank you! I started taking lessons many years ago and then stopped, but I want to start again at age 50+. I have a nice classical guitar but I'm thinking my hands are a bit smaller so when I was starting to learn, I felt I had trouble reaching some of the notes on the fret. What do you think about a 3/4 guitar for beginners? Just until I get better and then can switch to my full-size guitar?

I recently started using a regular strap for support (thx, Brandon Acker!) Never got around to installing a SageWorks support I bought. Maybe this makes me somehow impure, but I’m exerting far less energy wrestling with my guitar to be stable. Also, while I’m unsure how related, it’s made it easier to keep the head of the guitar higher. As a result, it’s easier to keep my ‘fret side’ forearm consistently vertical. Definitely has helped - Capricho Arabe is now coming along much better than before.

Not only does the Guitarlift provide the best support, the fact that it keeps the back of the guitar off your body increases the resonance of the instrument.

❤ from Mongolia.

The best way to have a good posture is to make sure that your low back is not unstable and the gluteals and abdominals are strengthened. I have a simple exercise routine that takes 30 seconds a day. I also have many self treatments for the shoulders and arms. Oh My Aching Bach.

Hi Beatrix, thanks for the nice presentation on this major issue of a healthy playing position. Still I am wondering why the head of the guitar should be so high above the shoulders. Quite a century ago Emilio Pujol suggested to have the point of the low E (saddle on the bass side) should be in a horizontal line with the shoulder. Of course each person’s body is different, but I consider this setup as wise since it makes performing in the low positions is much more comfortable for the left arm. At the same your right arm can more easily rest on the guitar, so you don’t have to fix it there with your muscles. If you then use a foot stool (I don’t like it neither) or a post or even better a cushion (more flexible to avoid fixed positions) it’s up to anybody’s own preferences. Best wishes Wulfin. 🎉

My first guitar teacher almost ended my guitar career there and then by insisting on me using a foot stool.

Of course he couldn’t, so luckily I am still playing the guitar professionally 35 years later. No chance I would do that if someone had convinced me of the «correct» technique.

It somewhat sad how bad of a rap the foot stool gets. The reality is that any issues you encounter with back pain sitting with your leg raised to for an extended amount of time are most likely as a consequence of insufficient hip mobility. It takes surprisingly good hip mobility to sit in that position with a neutral spine alignment. If your back starts hurting after sitting in that posture it means your spine is out of alignment and your muscles are having to hold up your torso so as not to fall over, they are therefore under constant tension. If your spine and hips were in a neutral position the ought to be able to relax your body completely and stay perfectly upright as your vertebrae will be stacked correctly on top of one another, or better yet, close your eye's have someone push down on your shoulders while completely relaxing your body. More likely then not you will fold instantly. I liken it to people proclaiming the full lotus pose to be a dangerous way to sit because it can fuck up your knees, but it's not the posture, it's an insufficient mobility that's causing undue pressure to be put on your knees.

I see a lot of young and very accomplished guitarists have a much greater degree of tilt of the neck. More than 45, more like 60 and 70. It looks good for the right hand, but it looks very fatiguing for the left arm as the elbow is lifted rather high. Is there a particular school or instructor promoting this method? I'm sure you've seen it.

The set up in the man er mentioned is not just for comfort, but to great to e from the guitar. The rights has to be at 30° to a 45° angle to the strings to make good full (fat) sound. The right hand should be slightly arched to prevent carpel tunnel syndrome.
