All,

How does everyone keep the guitar stationary while changing chords? What I mean is when I change chords, the guitar necks move away from my body. Its a small amount at times(and sometimes its a larger movement) but it still affects my playing. Am I holding the body of guitar to tightly? or am I holding the neck incorrectly? I'm sure this is a rookie mistake and an odd question but I am to be more fluid with playing. This seems to slow down my playing.

P.S. I sit when I play and dont use a strap.

Thanks, Jon
