18:42 Conclusion
The main takeaway from this lesson is that finding your guitar position is a life-long study that requires constant refinement and adjustments as you progress and as you age. A series of small adjustments can really affect your technique on the instrument and make a huge difference. After all, many errors on the guitar are caused by small movements that require millimetre changes, therefore, small adjustments to your guitar position, not just your hands, can be the difference between success and hardship. Hope this helps, happy practicing.
