standing while playing

bigeric

Hi

I was wondering if anybody plays standing up?

Craig Bumgarner

Stephane Wrembel does, but I think he is in a small minority:



It can be argued that playing acoustic standing up will cut the volume because the back rests against one's body, dampening the sound. When sitting, the guitar can be held slightly away from the body. If you playing with a pickup as does Stephane, it probably doesn't matter.

Lot's of people play standing up.

Adelaarvaren

Oscar Aleman did at least some....



Greg Ruby and Kevin Connor do in Hot Club Sandwich sometimes





Thomas Dutronc does, but purists might argue he's not playing GJ

steven_eire

bireli does (but not sure wheter he only does this when using regular picking)

and angelo is standing in the vid below

I like this picture of Oscar while playing standing up. He did this to avoid feedback from the guitar.

Best,
