ever wonder if u are holding the keyboard to vertical? lets see how vertical this forum can get. i personally hold it 80 degrees. it seems like im playing a cello.

degrees are the angle from the ground.
EX:
90 degrees would be vertical
0 degrees would be parallel to the ground

But when I lean back and relax Id say its around 60-70 degrees.

As a cellist, I feel more comfortable playing long solos at 80-90 degrees. Works for me. :)

70 degrees but, if you were to take a picture of me, my body would be slanted like i were balancing on one ass cheek which makes my angle somewhere near 110-120 degrees.

Something around 60-70 degrees. That's how you hold a real guitar. You kind of have to hold it that way if you're playing classic at least.
