   I would like to 'yell' at Atom for
what he wrote in CRSRD#3 in this section,
but since the article is written last
queue - there is little memory left.  Better
I will make a public apology for not
checked his typescript and
misinformation.
   Now some corrections.
   The 2nd string should sound the same as
3rd, pressed to the 4th fret. Everyone else
should sound the same as the next one
fifth fret. By the way, the string count comes from the bottom
up (i.e. from the thinnest (1st))
   The main elements of acoustic
guitars are: neck with frets and tuning pegs
mechanism, body (or drum) with
hole and strings. Other elements
are included as mandatory components
previous ones. The dots on the fretboard are marked for
crust, convenience and show-off.
   After such 'inscriptions' you can without fear
approach the instrument (by the way about
the quality of the Atom guitar was right - it was bad
learning guitar is more difficult, and more painful, and
longer). I immediately give advice to buy
medium tension strings for El.  -
Acoustic guitars (and if you don’t mind
money, but you feel sorry for your fingers, then buy it
nylon strings, followed by them
replacement with steel ones), although about the strings
special conversation.
   Inspect the guitar beforesetting.
The distance between the 12th fret and the strings is 5-7
millimeters. If the strings are long, then
wind the whole peg (without tails) like this
The guitar doesn't go out of tune longer.
   After inspection, you can configure it.
   After setting up, you need to sit on
the edge of some not very soft object
(like a chair), cross your legs,
place the guitar with the recess in the body on
higher leg, put your right hand
on the strings in the 'hole' area, and with the palm of your hand
with your left hand grab the bar in the area of the first
okay so that ! fingernails showed
thumb left behind the fingerboard!.
You can strum a little while pressing
different frets and strings (not
overdo it - you'll ruin your hearing) don't
forgetting about!! -th rule. To be continued in 6th
number of Perekrestkov.

       Yours Squirrel For You.
