hey i'm not sure how low/high to sling my guitar while playing standing up, plus it feels odd.

i need some advice, please :???:
 
Go with whats comfortable to you.

You don't need people to tell you how high or low you wear your pants right?
 
it can be quite tricky, for me at least. Too low I cant shred, too high I cant play riffs and the slightest adjustment makes a big difference too
 
You try placing your guitar on your lap, sitting on the floor. Then put on the strap and tighten it as much as you can. I think that's the most comfortable for me..
 
best advice i can give is experiment ard and practice more standing up. after awhile u'll get ur perfect height :)
 
Agreed with the rest, experiment which height is the best for you. Personally, my guitar's slung slightly lower than my waist because it just feels more comfortable when it's slung low. I play more riffs than I shred so slinging my guitar high for better shredding at the expense of everything else is pointless for me.
 
For me.. at first i felt i put too high while standing.. and it looks awakard.. so i try playing at a lower position.. obviously i felt more difficult to play chords at higher fret.. but for solo is okay.. so try to get use play at a position that does not look ugly as well as it does not make u feel uncomfortable..that my personal opinion
