Has anyone of you used The Magnet to study your plucking/slapping/picking/thumbing hand’s movements? If you have, what have been your observations, and has the use of The Magnet somehow affected your practising, playing, and maybe teaching styles?
This is completely forbidden on our website!
No ok obviosuly joking! I would love to see more closeups of classical fingerstyle and bass technique. Could be interesting to see the difference between players who can do fast " i m i m i m " and players who can’t.
Yes! Classical and hybrid picking would be cool too .
First time poster (and longtime lurker) here! I have been using the Magnet as a core part of my instructional videos for a few years now. I run a website dedicated to fingerstyle tutorials (with a lot of Tommy Emmanuel stuff), and I always do playthroughs with the Magnet on the guitar so I don’t have to explain every single picking hand fingering too (the videos are more than long enough as it is).
The combination is really cool:
To B Or Not To B
Cannonball Rag
The only downside: editing mistakes becomes almost impossible, and it has made my life quite a bit more difficult
But my audience found this camera angle essential almost right away.
