                        <content:encoded><![CDATA[For the first few years I'd played guitar, I think I liked the idea of playing more than actually playing. Right now I can play heaps of songs, but my technique is pretty sloppy and I never put my fingers right behind the frets, and strings are always ringing out when they shouldn't be. My guitar teacher tried to teach me all the basic stuff, but I either didn't take it in or didn't practice it. Now I've decided that I should perfect the basics, and start over, from the ground up, so that I can build a solid foundation and get a way better sound out of my guitar.<br>Any good suggestions, opinions, or technique book recommendations etc. welcome.<br>Thanks.]]></content:encoded>
