4 months? that gr8t :B

I bet you will be a great guitar player, since you already got the technique!! :0 I don't like the guitar, cuz I always ALWAYS break the strings, I can't control a pick, and when I try to play it...it's like "OMG the frets are so small!!!!"(the same with violin) That's why I tried bass xD playing with your fingers feels good :B


:0 when I have played in different presentations, we did lots of mistakes, but we could take them and convert them in part of the show xD or "make them invisible(almost)" and let them go :B (just once I failed, I was playing with little kids of other schools, I didn't feel "the magic" I couldn't follow them everyone were too nervous, that's contagious....and then,FAIL!)

I guess you re the kind that can move fast with technique knowing what you are doing, I can't play fast and my technique sucks, but if a drummer makes a beat, I can follow him (from rock to jazz n___n) ;D I just have been focusing in "opening my mind" xD

oh girl...Last year I went to a beethoven concert with my friends (they don't listen to classical music). We started to cry, that's how beautiful it was :3 (vivaldi is good, but yes you can even recognize him so easily by just hearing a little part...)

<3 I would love to listen a bach cover coming from you :heart:

Well I have to begin somewhere!! Of course my parents' face when I told them I was learning electric guitar was a bonus!! :lol: Their perfect little girl became a deviant!! :biggrin :rolleyes:

The biggest problem to learn the violin, is that as there are no frets, you have to make sure your left fingers are extremely precise, otherwise it's completely out of tune!! In that aspect, guitar is definitely easier. ANd yes, with the years of training, I can play very fast. Not so fast on the guitar yet, because the left fingers are still fast, but the pick doesn't follow! YET!! :D

I don't think I could play the bass, the strings are WAY too big for me, violin strings are much thinner, even on the guitar, the low E took some time to get used to!!

So you do fingerpicking on your bass then?

It's good that you can "open your mind" to the music! It took me years to feel confortable enough with my technique, that I was able to not focus sorely on it anymore and to let myself feel the music. However, it's definitely more enjoyable!! :D

Eheh, I'll have to think of making a cover then!! :) Now I just have to find a camera that takes sound well... :blink:

a deviant lol!! electric guitar is just another instrument!! xD

Yeah, the fretless thingy. I was wondering about getting a frettless bass...meh you will get it! I guess the pick works somehow in a similar way the "arco"(I don't know how to say it in english...violin)works.

Big?? they are perfect, at least for me. xD

Yes, I use my fingers :B

meh, I don't care too much about technique xD . yes, it is more enjoyable :B plus. violin is such a beautiful instrument.


:DDD YAY A BACH COVER!! ^w^

(I read one of your fics, yay you are a writter too ^_^ )

Lol, thanks for reading my fic, I appreciated your comments!! :) Have you read "missing" too? I'm not sure what I think of it, and I wrote it :blink: :lol:

Actually, you play on the violin with a bow, although if you use "arco" I think everyone would understand!! :wink

It's actually very different from using a pick as movements have more amplitude if that makes sense, and much more tiring as you have to keep your right arm "suspended" all the time, controlling pressure, speed, intensity of your bow to influence the sound. That's why when someone begins the violin they creat some sort of horrible scratchy sound taht makes your bleed!! (and yes, I did spent by that time too, my parents were overjoyed!! :biggrin )
