Don't get me wrong, I practice every night with limited time. I've got a decent routine as a big'ner but feel I'm here way to much. This time could be spent on more scales or something. As I set here and type this, I could be jamming but just love to see whats going on! How is your time spent here? If I'm at work, then cool, I'll post away. But practicing for an hour when it could be an hour and a half. Well, I guess I feel a little guilty. Steve You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.

I browse the boards mostly when i'm at work (mostly becase when i'm at work i wish i was practicing instead!), when i'm at home i usually just practice without the distraction of the internet. I've got my beginners practice schedule locked down, although to be honest it feels more like purgatory sometimes - there's so much stuff i want to do that i'm not ready for yet patience. As long as being on the forums doesn't actively prevent you for practicing i wouldn't say it's dangerous to spend a fair bit of time on here.

I can say that the forum part keeps me motivated much more than if the site was exclusively the lessons. Hearing everyone's stories and reading up on gear, artists, haircuts and sore body parts just keeps me interested. It's the combo that makes this place what it is.
