Volcom92skate's PM to me on Sat, Feb 21 2009: "hey u said he has horrible technique...hes prolly 100x better then you...post up faggot"
zz scrub get older then you can TRY to argue. This is something you obviously don't know about. Stop trying to defend your shitty friend.

Left: Classical Right: Regular/Flamenco
His thumb sticks out unnecessarily because of improper technique, thus making his left hand very inefficient:

Additional tips:
1) Kid has horrible posture; he'll end up like our little friend from Notre Dame.
2) The angle of his left hand, because of the above & improper practice, is too twisted, unnatural, & thus inefficient.
3) Right arm & wrist angles are sorta weak because of posture, so he'll be a little slower, but they don't make much of a difference in electric guitar anyway.
4) Shoulders make it seem like he gets tired. Play right or don't play at all.
Of course you'll start whining on how "he's playing on a bed" etc. So? I can play on my bed, electric guitar or flamenco or classical, & still follow proper technique. So can my students.
Of course you'll ask: "PROOF OR IT DIDN'T HAPPEN BECAUSE I'M 15 AND TOO STUPID TO REALIZE THAT WHAT YOU'RE WRITING IS TRUE BECAUSE YOU'RE A MUSIC GRAD, SPECIALIZED IN GUITAR, AND HAVE TAUGHT OVER 60 STUDENTS IN PRIVATE LESSONS AT THE UNIVERSITY LEVEL." Which is what I want, because I'd definitely go out of my way and record a low-quality video and post it on youtube just so that you tell yourself: "I don't care," despite the fact that you'll cry that night because you got owned by a "jsp rando."
"omg e rage moar?" - geek :\
you're being too harsh on him, lol... he's only 15 ,most kids that age can only play tabs of songs they like from Guitar Hero.
it's likely not his fault about improper technique, hell I had terrible posture and positioning when I was younger, and my teacher never even told me...
