I've discoveered that the more instruments you learn, the more frustrated you get. Allow me to explain. When I first learned piano, I was introduced to the art of practicing (oh yes, it's an art in itself). It's also how I began developing my ear way back when. Then I learned trumpet. All my piano ear training from piano applied to trumpet, but with trumpet it was taken to the next level. What I'm trying to say here is that a musician has an ear for things that non musicians don't. Why am I ranting on about this? Because it's a problem. Why is it a problem? Because now I'm aware of sounds coming from my guitar that drive me utterly insane because my technique is still developing.
When you play the guitar, there are two causes of buzz that can be traced back to the musician: One is because the guitarist isn't pressing down hard enough (something that gets fixed over time as finger strength grows), and the other one is because the fingers aren't placed right on the fretboard (not being close enough to the fret). My fingers are still developing so every so often I get annoyed with myself. The reason I'm posting this? Because I want everyone to know why my headed exploded before it happened. I blame it on the buzz.
