I sit while playing keyboards and sometimes even play guitar while sitting, especially for home recording, but usually it's standing for 'live' git playing.

Sitting when I'm learning something new - 50/50 the rest of the time.

Acoustic or electric, I always stand and I also always try to not look at what I'm doing unless I'm learning something new or challenging. I try to practice the way I would perform. Standing, amp behind me, looking forward and chin up like I've got my face in a mic.

Just think of how awesome a guitar player you could have been by now if you had only spent the last 10 years practicing instead of obsessing over pickups and roasted maple necks.

I Like To Learn A Song Sitting Down Then Master It Standing Up. When I Play At Someone Else's Place, Standing.

I usually sit at home..I seem to play better sitting. I stand at church - a bit harder to play that way, not sure why. I should probably practice more standing...I suppose I am too lazy :?

Standing. I think someone else mentioned it too-I keep better time (for whatever reason).

standing. when i sit and play too long my right shoulder hurts - i don't know why. but it stops me from sitting very long when I play. I sit and play until it hurts, then I gotta stand.
