Well I wanted to know your opinion on what make's a good voice, is it the time and effort put into training your voice and honing it to perfection or are some people more naturally gifted with good voices?

I realise that guitar is more something you can train to perfection - like Kris says no natural talent required, but vocally you only have what you are given originally.

So basically, do you think great singers are born with a natural ability or work towards good voices? Or perhaps a bit of both?

I agree with the notion that the best singers do have a natural ability that is improved by training and practice. Many good singers have sung since they were infants, with no more formal practice than simply listening and imitating the music they heard around them. That, to me, indicates some natural ability that didn't come about just by training their brains and their bodies with singing practice.

Not a very scientific explanation, I know. More like a gut feeling smile.gif
