Basic Left Hand Technique Tips for Classical Guitar

Left Hand - Classical Guitar

Basic Left Hand Technique Tip for beginner and intermediate classical guitarists.This is a video I made for my beginner students. It includes multiple camera angles. The left hand position in classical guitar is not that dissimilar to the right hand concepts I discussed in my post on the right-hand. I’ll be making more videos on specific techniques soon. Level: Beginner or intermediate and cross-over students. Main points (things I say 100 times): curved fingers, on finger tips. palm close to guitar, straight wrist for the most part, outer fingers come in at an angle.
