Unfortunately the sound isn't working properly? As a complete beginner, on this instrument, I would love some basic tips on propee finger placement on the fretboard for getting correct, and in tune, note positioning. And intonation.

@Julia Horneman yes sometimes jus a phone doesn't pick it up if a distance away for some reason. Or another app is open using the microphone.

Love to see what you do to prepare. Yes playing pop or jazz tunes is something I love to do on other instruments I play.
