Re: What courses would you like to see next on tonebase Guitar?
@Phill Tadman it definitely requires a different technique. You need to learn to dig in and escape the string in a different manner.

Re: What courses would you like to see next on tonebase Guitar?
@Phill Tadman good one Phil! I play without nails and if done correctly, which takes a lot of practice, has an exquisite tone. Virginia Luque is the most famous and incredible player to do so.…

Re: What do you think about the tonebase Practice Plans?
Ok so I filled out the questionnaire and had a look at the suggested videos. I’m afraid none of them were of any interest to me. I really like the Level System but this practice plan isn’t something…

Re: What do you think about the tonebase Practice Plans?
I’m not sure Martin. I’ll have to take a look at it. Since I’m taking regular lessons with a world class player it probably would be redundant for me and I can’t afford the extra cost.…

Re: Fingernail Problems and possible solutions
My solution, Jack, has been to learn to play without nails, ala my teacher, Virginia Luque. It takes some getting used to but in the end it’s so rewarding!

Re: Group 1
Hello Alexander! Here is my first video on the three techniques for this first week. Question: why is flamenco played on the right leg instead of on the left like classical guitar?…

Re: Technical Passage Mini Challenge
@martin I agree with you Martin! I also prefer to not play the barre in that passage. It is definitely the trickiest part of the piece. And I like your ornaments. They sound very nice.

Re: 🎸🎧What lessons or courses would you like to see on tonebase that aren’t there yet? 🎸🎧
This is a big one… I’d like to see Tonebase offer an accredited online conservatory degree, like Berklee, but for classical guitar.

Hi David, if you are in the US there is a Kenny Hill World Player model in 628 scale length. I have an older student in his 80s who doesn’t have great flexibility and this is a good guitar for him.…

Re: If you could master the technique of any guitarist, living or dead, who would it be and why?
@David Krupka thanks for the links, David. I appreciate it and I’ll check them out. I joined the UK lute society when I bought my lute. It is, indeed, a good resource.

@David Krupka thanks for the encouragement David. You’ve given me something to think about so I’ll maybe put those extra strings back on! My lute is made by a student of Lorinczi’s, Gagyi Denes.…

Re: If you could master the technique of any guitarist, living or dead, who would it be and why?
@David Krupka it’s made by a local luthier in Romania. It’s an 8c Renaissance lute. I don’t play with nails so I get a nice lute sound but I really can’t handle those double courses.…
