No thatll fuck up the outlet you need to hotglue resistors on a cd then use it as a pick first. It will act as a solar panel ensuring better toan.

Haha you do, do. I don’t really care buddy, but power chords diminish the ROI on that “guitar” you have in your hand. I try to only play single notes closer to the body in blues scale for sound but also to preserve the original neck. Even that beater your playing was new once.

Your thumb might be to high on the neck, it’s better if you put it in the middle of the back of the neck

Give a quarter turn counter clockwise and you got yourself an Automatic D Cord™️

I used to live in some old ass house a few years ago, I used to play the guitar either while wearing shoes on or without my feet touching the ground or else I'd get a crazy ass shock 🤣
