I've gotten myself into a bit of a pickle. All of my practicing has been electric and acoustic guitar while sitting down without a guitar strap. It's been fairly comfortable practicing this way especially for me to be able to lean over and see what my fingers are doing. In a couple weeks I'm supposed to jam along with some friends where I assume I'll be standing. Problem is now when I use a guitar strap I can't lean or see my fingers that well anymore. It feels like my fretting hand is so far away from my body now and makes it difficult to place my fingers and see what they're doing. I surely can't play as clean standing up than sitting down. Maybe it's just a matter of re-learning, but standing feels so different from sitting. Almost like two different playing styles. Anyone have some tips to get over this problem?
Thanks,
Aaron
