ACOUSTIC GUITAR CLASSICAL GUITAR

Not having used a guitar for a while, my ability to play has dimished not only in skill, but also in physically how long I can play before my hands hurt. I've been encouraged by someone to practice more and I've taken that to heart and tried to play more. So the callouses are starting to come back and I'm able to play a little bit longer than when I tried last week.

One thing I've never been too good at is with playing by ear, so I'm going to share a tip for trying to play along with CDs or legally downloaded digital music. This absolutely won't work if your music is illegal. Buy your music!

In Windows Media Player, there is are some nifty built in enhancements. One of them is the "Play Speed Settings" enhancement which lets me change the speed of the music but not affect the tone. If you slow down the music, it won't sound super low. If you speed up the music, it won't sound like the Chipmunks. Some of the songs I try to play with change chords too fast or play the rifts too fast and I can't follow. Slowing down the music has been incredibly helpful in being able to follow.
