GUEST,Blackcatter at work	Guitar as accompaniment (69* d)	RE: Guitar as accompaniment	18 Nov 04
Hi all, I'm yet again thinking about picking up the guitar to accompany myself while singing. I've tried it a couple times in the past and never could seem to be able to strum and sing at the same time. Does anyone have any techniques that might help? I don't despirately want to learn, but a nice guitar has just fallen into my lap and I'd like to give it a go one more time. ----------------- Also - I'm left handed and tried playing right handed previously. But a guitar just seems more natural being held 180 deg. from most people - do you think that would help? Someone mentioned that using my favored hand would be good for doing the chords, but I've found that strumming rythym and singing don't seem to be compatable, at least with my right hand.
