      He’s talking about fretting, like when a guitar player presses some strings on the long neck part of the guitar, that makes strings ring out certain notes

          Yeah haha don’t worry I don’t think most people outside of the world of musicians understand that’s how it works.

          What particularly struck me when I picked it up was actually how physically literally painful it was, and the only way it really stops being so is if you develop calluses on your fingers from the repeated injury of pressing the tips into thin metal wires.
