Several people I play with have played for a few years and I feel like a joke .. That's the answer right there Rooks. You shouldn't compare to people that have been playing for years when yoy've been playing just a few months! Learn from them. You are lucky you can play with them, ask questions, see how they do it, and enjoy! As for motivation: how about recording a simple riff and then improvise over it with the pentatonic boxes you already know? Or get some backings and jam over them. Also, look for GMC lessons which 1)Are doable for your level and 2)Sound really good to you. Good luck, and don't even think of quitting! -------------------- Guitars:
