    What's that thing on the neck of the guitar? Does it make the guitar's pitch change? I'm thinking about learning to play one day. I just want to play classical guitar nothing fancy.

    It’s called a Capo or Guitar Clamp and it shortens the string length and raises the pitch.

    Thanks.
    It looks like it's in the way and that she should remove it to get a real groove in the music.
    It may actually make it harder for her. The clamps make it so much easier especially since the frets up the neck are closer together.

    I'm going to start with a bass so, for the moment, I don't think I have to worry about using that, right?
    Nah you won’t need one. I’m learning bass and don’t think of why we would need one. We don’t play chords we play single notes and usually play the root note of the chord the guitars play.

    You a horn player and if you can read sheet music and play scales you got a leg up. I play trombone and baritone and picked up bass a year and a half ago.
    Clarinet to guitar sounds hard.

    I always wanted to try the trombone but in HS everyone wanted reedless horns and I was late.
