The piano is the King of all instruments. Al of the notes are laid out before you and can be played one at a time or all at once. The guitar is the princess. She's curvy, twangy and electric and comes in all sexy shapes, sizes and colors.
There is time lag in Peter Bernstein's playing. Little bit of a lazy drag. I think that it comes from being too relaxed when he's playing. I don't think he's aware of it. Someone needs to point this out to him. Sounds as if there's not enough tension in his guitar strings but this may not be the reason. I think that if he has better posture when sitting this would help him to be more alert. I've also heard him playing at another venue on RU-vid where he was standing qnd I noticed the same elements about his music He is a very talented musician but changes in the direction I mentioned would unleash the best qualities of his music.
What shoes would you suggest he wear to improve his playing? How about hair color? Should he scrap that silly guitar and get one of the cool Day-Go ones you make, one with the right string tension? I'm going to adopt some of your suggestions myself.
