My flute has this one screw that is stripped and it constantly comes loose. I don't trust Hanson's to set it, because if they set it wrong, I will need a brand new flute. So everytime I put my flute together, I have to adjust the screw with my fingernail every time I get it out to play. And if I'm playing for more than half hour or more, I have to adjust it again, so my flute doesn't sound like s**t. I was handed my friend's clarinet, and I knew the fingerings, but it was slightly familiar to my flute position, so I absent-mindedly checked for the screw that I was so used to adjusting, and stopped myself. I would probably still do that if you handed me a different flute or if the screw ever gets set in mine, but it's been that way for almost two years now, so I doubt I'll ever budge and let someone set the screw, because I really don't trust anybody with my instruments. So because of constantly checking the screw on my flute, I would probably do that with any other instrument that involves being held and having fingerings. sweatdrop

moosiklady Areleklo Hehe, now let me explain, before i did piano i did guitar, i got extremely used to keeping my fingernails short. So i start to play my piano a few days ago. I can't play for s**t, now it turns out from playing guitar i developed something really odd psychological. I cannot play piano with long fingernails even though it makes no difference because of how much i used to play guitar! So yes that is an odd quirk that doesn't make much sense. But i figure we all know how to laugh at ourself here. What are weird things that have to be in place for you guys to make music? You're NOT supposed to have long fingernails on piano - it causes poor hand position. You're definitely better off with short nails - IT DOES MAKE A DIFFERENCE! The reason your hand position is probably better now is that guitar built up your finger strength. that the guitar did, pinky strength in particular
