1828459045's channel

This is my guitar channel where I post pieces that I learn. Quality varies, because of different reasons:
- my technique improves over time,
- I work for many hundreds of hours on some pieces, and only a few hours on some other pieces,
- my "quality bar" was different at different times: currently I am trying to play slower or pick simpler pieces for youtube in favor of playing smoother, and with no major mistakes like buzz or wrong note, but in the past I was using a different "quality bar".

My setup for playing and recording:

1. Alvarez by Kazuo Yairi, model CY116 guitar, year 1990. This is a mass-manufactured guitar, yet with fairly decent sound, dark wood. My previous guitar was Hohner LC-30N.

2. D'Addario EJ46C strings, hard tension. (I experiment a lot with strings, these are the ones I use while I am writing this text, 2011-08).

3. One Audio-Technica AT2020 USB Condenser USB Microphone.

4. Logitech HD Pro Webcam C910 with 1080p Video.

5. Logitech software, bundled with Webcam.

Misc:

6. Planet Waves Chromatic Headstock Tuner.
7. Ernie Ball PowerPeg Battery Powered String Winder
8. Xuron 170-II Micro-Shear Flush Cutter (to cut strings)
9. Guitar ErgoPlay instead of a footrest.
