ive had my electric for as long as i had my acoustic. im very comfortable with the acoustic, but i cant play the electric for ****. i feel so uncomfortable just holding it. i mean i always play my acoustic sitting down, with its base comfortable sitting on my hip. but my Strat is too thin for that, so it keeps slipping down from my hip. and im so used to having a wide body where i can rest my arm while strumming, but, again my Strat is rather thin for that. i try playing standing up but i feel like im holding the guitar awkwardly and i get tired in 5 seconds. i have to bend my wrist like 180 degrees so i can reach the strings. i shorten my strap but that doesnt help much. i dont know what to do or how to fix my mistake, cause i dunno what im doing wrong in the first place. i like my electric and i wanna be good at it. but i cant practice if i cant even hold the instrument correctly.... help?
