| Topic | I've had a guitar for 6 years and I still don't know how to play it. |
| Smashingpmkns 12/20/17 11:11:23 AM #17: | I got my first guitar in the fifth grade and I hated it. I wanted drums. Dropped it for two years, and in the 7th grade started jamming Sabbath and other riff driven bands. Inspired me to learn. When I hit high school I was in multiple death metal bands/alt rock bands. Now I can do most technical shit (sweep arpeggios, tapping, etc.). Never took any traditional lessons besides orchestra for violin. You don't need lessons if you make a plan for yourself and commit to playing. Some people do benefit from traditional lessons though, it's just not necessary with all of the resources we have now. I'm more of a psych/indie rock dude now so all of those techniques are lost on me, but it all really depends on what you want out of playing. I can jam a chord progression and a nice riff in a 2 minute jam sesh. Learning the instrument is a lot easier than becoming a song writer. --- Posted with GameRaven 3.3 ... Copied to Clipboard! |
