Left Hand - Simple Presentations

Adjust the elbow to place the fingers on the notes.



Carlevaro calls this a "simple presentation" as only one axis is involved on the fretboard.
   For more complex chord shapes, where you can see two axises, place one axis first, then rotate the arm until you can place the other.

During this the fingers remain quite passive.

With attentive practice this process will become very quick.



Carlevaro calls this a "mixed presentation" as more than one axis is involved on the fretboard.
