This is just speculation, but it seems that a 6/6 cross-strung would be easier to learn in the long run than a 7/5 cross- strung. Only two scales to learn!
Does anybody have any feedback on that notion?
I actually have experienced this phenomenon myself –
I had just gotten a new electric guitar ( nice Rickenbacker, actually) and noticed a very, disconcerting warbling in the upper registers. I took the guitar apart, changed strings, changed amps, etc. etc. for a few days on end. I nealy retuned the guita because I couldn;t figure out why it was behaving poorly.
It turned out that the source of the warble was the ceiling fan in my livingroom 🙁
About the tempo issues – could you try recording the student and then play it back? Perhaps with a metronome going simultaneously?
This is a good thing to nip in the bud. One of the guys in my Irish band, after 20 years of fiddling, has no internal metronome and it takes months to work out a good rhythm for the piece.
