Playing a guitar with only four strings – opportunity for persons with impaired dexterity
Description
The user chose a small guitar that sits well on his lap. He removed the E strings and tunes with the A, D, G, and H strings from above. Now the guitar is tuned so that he can hold down all of the strings at once. This tuning method makes it possible to play with one finger or with a slide.
Authors comments
The user had played the guitar before he was injured. He was sad that he could no longer play a musical instrument, but then he figured out how to adapt the guitar.
