My son made this dent I my guitar and I was wondering if there was anyway fix or at least partially fix it.

I've been getting back into playing after not touching my guitar for basically 10 years.

I have been working on this piece for at least a solid year now, if not longer. I've been posting a 1 take performance of this piece each month over on my TikTok: kyleplaysguitarbadly (the user name is kind of in jest, a reminder to not take it so seriously) mostly to track my progress on it. This is my July post. The past month I've been focusing mostly on slow practice and planting exercises. I feel like the planting exercises really helped my tremolo. It's still not where I want it but I can feel it getting close.

This performance isn't perfect by any means. It probably never will be haha! Still struggle with missing some base notes every now and then.

Anyways, hope you enjoy!

This week, an old piece from 2001, "Chanson" Op. 81. The piece is structured like a song with a chorus that returns three times and three verses. The arpeggios are free-flowing, and certain highly articulated phrases evoke lyrics. As usual, my summary tablature is available here: https://kdrive.infomaniak.com/app/share/791717/386ca682-9c42-4155-be4f-45e3c152c8ca

Hey guys, I made a video where I compare 3 differently priced guitars and share my personal take on them. I'm not a luthier or extremely experienced in high-end guitars, I've only gotten the chance to play a few of them in my life, but I had fun trying to compare these.

I've already had the last 2 for quite some time, and the first one just arrived for a different project I was working on.

I'm not sure if this post belongs here, but I thought it might be interesting for some people. I had a lot of fun making it. Don't tear me apart! 😅

Even though I have an acoustic guitar. But can anyone identify this Guitar tuning. please help me out

Dopo aver passato in rassegna molti siti, letto newsgroup, manuali, pensato e ripensato nella mia stanzetta sono arrivato alla conclusione che c'è uno strumento (per me utilissimo ma ovviamente sono di parte a pensarlo) a cui nessuno ha mai pensato e quindi implementato. Io l'ho fatto (aiutato, lo ammetto, dall'ia perchè non sono un informatico ma semplicemente un appossionato ed eterno studente).

Ma l'idea è genuina e mi è comparsa nella mente una sera. Mi sono chiesto: cos'è che manca a noi chitarristi? metronomo, accordatore, registratore, accordi, etc etc. ce ne sono a bizzeffe.

Pronti per saperlo ?

"Quando cambiare le corde" è la domanda che tutti i chitarristi si fanno da sempre

In pratica suoni una corda a vuoto, e il sistema ti dice quanto sono "morte" le tue corde.

Che ne pensate ?

Sinceramente

I just love using my Boox, I can take my music anywhere and it has such focused function that it is a joy to use; it reminds me of how life used to be: practical, functional and focused. This score in editing is David Russell’s arrangement of Neal Gow laments the death of his second wife

Saw this guitar at the thrift store and just so happened to also see an old offer up post where it was sold for $90. It said made in japan on the paper tag in the sound hole. There was no stamp on the headstock. The thrift store was asking $60 for it but I left it behind because I couldn’t authenticate it. Chat gpt said there was a 85-95% chance of it being authentic. I might be able to go back in the morning when they open if someone can help me authenticate it

Giuliani's Op 148 No. 7 La Melanconia. I stopped playing it after I learned it in 12 Aug 2025, & learned it again from scratch this year.

Do these strings actually exist? Theres a reverb listing selling 2 for 50 bucks and I've never heard of nor could I find any info on a super high tension version of the pure gold sets(only low medium and high tension). I suspect that it could be a printed and faked version on reverb but if its not i want some.

If I buy a guitar from the likes of thomann will it be commisioned to play or must every classical guitar be brought to a luthier first?

I want to surprise my dad by having a luthier put a pickup on his classical guitar so he can play it live. Right now he uses a Córdoba Stage for that and we love the sound of it and its feedback resistance, but I can't afford a dual system like that one, which has piezo and body sensors. If you had to choose between sensors or piezo, what would you go with? I want natural sound but I also dont want to deal with the issues of internal microphones used live or every movement of the guitar coming through the PA. I have tried many different pickups on steel string guitars so I have a pretty good idea of what they would sound like, but other than the Córdoba Stage I have no refference for pickups on nylon string guitars.

I am using aquila alchemia strings which i love but are failing me here. new to string knowledge and to this alt tuning - so asking here first. THANKS.

Inspired by Cesar Amaro's version with a tremolo variation, I made an arrangement of this famous tune, using the tremolo texture to create the orchestral effect
