Marc, Wow, very impressive! That piece looks so daunting that I can't even imagine tackling it, but I like your philosophy of taking a challenging song and working at it a little at a time, without any kind of timeline. I was looking at Harvest Moon this week, and I think I'm going to put your philosophy into practice with that one! I'm much less patient than you, though, so I hope it doesn't take me 2 years to nail :)

Thanks for posting this! karma, mon ami! Suzi

Willem and Al think your hand position looks better this way or that. What I see is that you have the neck actually pointing away from you because you have the guitar so far to your right. I can understand why you hold it that way, I did the same thing some some time until it was pointed out to me. Bring the guitar around in front of you. Point the neck to your left, not forward and left. This will make it easier to get good hand position.

Thank you for the kind words, Suzi. As you and Bill have mentioned, patience is difficult to handle. I am not patient at all, but somehow I am more patient with the guitar. I think not giving a deadline (and accepting for real) to a song helps.

Bonne journée

Marc

This is a very good point, Andy, I had not noticed it. My shirts seem to be way thicker in front and the guitar slides to right ;)

I will make a point to keep the guitar in front of me thus keeping the neck parallel to my torso.

Kudos to you Marc, you've done the hard work now just to enjoy polishing it up and hearing it improve every time you play it. Makes me want to practice more now and get it nailed...
