    Great video! I assume with the barre chord exercise you move on to the other fingers in various combinations, doing the same steady movements up the frets as you did. The whole concept of relaxing the tension periodically is very helpful. Cheers!

    What is the scale length of your guitar? Is the body "full" size in comparison to the scale length? The body looks a little smaller than a typical/standard guitar in the video. I have an Alhambra 7P and it's a 650mm scale length. I'm thinking I should seriously consider having a guitar built with a 635 - 640mm scale length with a 52mm nut width. I have some hand-health issues with my left hand and I think the shorter scale will be a huge help in protecting the future of my playing. Merce Font (also on YT) has a 635mm if I remember correctly. Thank you for a great video and any help you could offer!

    I don’t play classical guitar, but I’ve been thinking about switching over. I do enjoy the tone of the strings a bit more. That said, as a player still in my first six months of playing, this was fantastic.
