I've only played serious since I discovered GMC, about 10 months ago. I played for 4 years before that, but the only thing I knew was a few Iron Maiden intros and power chords. I didnt know ANYTHING. I didnt know what sweeping, alternate picking, pinch harmonic, legato, hammer on, pull off etc. etc. etc. was.
I never really practiced, I just jammed power chords, and that was very rare, becuase I skateboarded alot, played Counter Strike ALOT, and I played WoW
ALOOOOOOT!
I knew NOTHING! Not one single little thing. I think I knew what a bend was though... I didnt know any scales becuase I thought it was useless. If only someone told me that the Iron Maiden guitarists also used scales... *sigh*
In my 10 serious months at GMC I've learned sooooo damn much.
Lets see... Names and meaning of most techniques, guitar parts, discovered lots more guitarists, some chords, alot more knowledge about gear and a bunch of other guitar related things. My playing has of course improved 100000 billion times.
I learned more in
ONE EVENING with GMC than in 4 years of random SH#T!! I'm really angry at myself for being so stupid and waste 4 valuable years of playing, on computer games.
