3. Basic chord-pressing posture: gently press your fingers on the fingerboard, and do not use excessive force to keep your fingers naturally bent. At the same time, pay attention to keep the distance between each finger so that you can move your fingers quickly when playing.
4. Basic sliding technique: Sliding is a common technique, and you can play continuous notes by sliding your fingers on the fingerboard. To master this skill, you need to practice the flexibility and control of your fingers.
