Hey guys, I\'m building another house!

[Paul2]

i did practice a lot though.  used too. 

like i said a thousand times already, the strings that come with the guitar that i bought doesn't cut or hurt my fingers when i practice them.

after one of the strings broke, i got it replace, they replace sharp strings that hurt my fingers when i practice it.  so eventually i bought the strings and replace it myself and the strings that they sold me are sharp too.  so i been tricked by the store twice.

i think i am done practicing the guitar.  its getting harder and harder as i progress.  so i had stop practicing for months already.  and won't bother practicing anymore.

and now you give me a hard time and try to trick me to practice more to develop calluses.  that's pretty mean.  as if you pretend not to understand that i already said in my previous posts that before i got the strings replace.  my fingers doesn't hurt when i practice them and i practice them a lot.  i am talking about my fretting hands doesn't get any cuts before the strings get replace.  i only get blister on my strumming hand because i over practice it and that was one time only.

having calluses is one thing, but cutting my fingers and getting blisters is a different thing.

[§ôµÏG®ïñD]

just now i was practicing playing my guitar and the new strings still hurt my fingers.  as if it is sharp and it felt like it can cut my fingers. this was the case last week too where after minutes and minutes of playing the guitar.  the strings hurt my fingers.

so i bought light strings and it still hurts my fingers.  i am pretty sure i been scam again.  they sold me strings that they purposely make it sharp to hurt my fingers.

hang on, first you say could cut your fingers now you're saying they the strings do cut your fingers and blister them?  which is it?

Evi isn't trying to trick you. ANY guitarist will tell you the same thing. It can hurt at first but over time you will develop calluses.  If you got light gauge strings and it still hurts to play guitar then quit. You don't have what it takes. Light gauge strings shouldn't hurt a beginner much at all unless your over fretting or you've tuned the guitar way to high.

[Paul2]

when i first bought the guitar that comes with the strings.  i over practice and got blister on the thumb on my right hand.  But the fretting hand which is my left hand never hurt from pressing the string against the fretting board.  Not until i let the guy in the store to replace the string for me.

honestly, looking back, i don't even know what he look like.  he was away when i went to the store to ask one of the guys there to replace it and they say the guy that is in charge of replacement isn't here but they will hold on to the guitar until he comes back to replace the strings for us.

After we got it replace, i practice it and the strings hurt my fingers.  i think he purposely replace heavy gauge strings and he tuned it too high.  So i got ripped off and not just ripped off but my fingers hurt from practicing the guitar.

So i decided to replace the strings myself and i bought light gauge and it still hurts my finger.  its felt like the strings are cutting my fingers.  again, the sound quality also sound crappy too.

how exactly are you tuning this guitar?

[Paul2]

by guessing.  either way, the strings are sharp as if they purposely make it sharp to hurt my fingers.

[§ôµÏG®ïñD]

yes, that's what they do. To get repeat business they go out of their way to give you bad strings to keep you coming back for more. They love to get repeat business that way. It's part of a guitarists training, to trick you into practicing and buy shit strings.  The entire guitar community is working together, against you in a attempt to make you crazy...



...to late.



and guessing to tune a guitar?!

i think they were paid to do that to me.  i think somebody paid them money to give me bad strings.  but i haven't bother getting new strings since then.

speaking about guessing to strings a guitar.  yes, it still possibly sounds out of tune but at least it should be in good quality sound but mine was crappy.

[§ôµÏG®ïñD]

no and no.

they weren't paid to screw you.

and you won't get good sound out of bad tuning.

[Paul2]

yes and yes.  they were paid to screw me.

its somewhat in tune but the sound quality still sound bad.  i can overlook that but the sharp strings hurt my fingers each time i press against it.  if i continue, it will eventually cuts my fingertips.

the strings before this ones that the guy replace for me also sound bad too.  i remember my music teacher tune it for me and it still sounds bad.  each time my fingers press the strings against the fretting board, it hurts.

the only time that the sound sounds very good was when i first bought the guitar that comes with the strings.  even before it got tune up, it still sound very good.  after a different music teacher tune it up, its sound even better.

afterward, the 2nd music teacher purposely drop my guitar and it makes the strings sound flabby.  he told me to replace the strings.  that time i didn't know he purposely drop my guitar.  i thought it was an accident.  after i paid the store worker to replace the strings for me, the sound quality still suck but at least it doesn't sounds flabby.  Not only that but the strings hurt my fingers each time i press against it.

Hey Paul. You think about picking up an instrument that doesn't require strings or much maintenance?

[Paul2]

no thanks.  my mom asked me to take piano/keyboard lessons before but i refuse.  i have no interest in them whatsoever.  especially after what the music teachers did to me and what the music store did to me.  no thanks and no way jose.

[Titan]

Can always try to teach yourself.

[Paul2]

thanks but no thanks.

[§ôµÏG®ïñD]

so... your teacher purposely dropped your guitar and the store staff purposely give you wrong strings. 


take photos of the guitar and show me, also hold down the thickest string at the first fret and the last fret at the same time. What size gap is there at the 12th fret between the bottom of the string and top of the fret?
