Oh man
 Its not normal to feel like quitting because you lost a "guitar battle".What is a guitar battle anyway ? Something like in Guitar Hero video game ? Don't feel sad, you said that you were close (he was better in some techniques and worse in others) and he is playing 2-3 years longer than you! That only means that you are progressing at much faster pace than he is and that soon you will catch up with him and be better! Trust me time for buying new gear will come , that really doesn't matter at all and everyone can do it (you don't even have to know how to play)...Music is one of the most beautiful things on world , don't challenge your love for it because of such small things!

Man. Don't feel said about that. Simply people improve in different rates and different things. And he has been playing 2-3 more years than you. It does make a difference.
But anyway, guitar is not about guitar battles. It's about expressing your soul through music. It's about having fun. You are the first one to listen to yourself playing. Even before you do it. You listen to it in your heart. If David Gilmour went in guitar battles with some unknown guitarists I would say he would "lose" to many of them in the opinion of many people, because some people are only looking at speed and impressive techniques. But man, listen to comfortably numb, or Shine On You Crazy Diamond, or many other songs. It is so expressive! It is so beautiful! If guitar battles were about sounding nice, there are a few men around the world who would compete with David Gilmour.

The only competition is to be the best guitarist that YOU can be - the rest doesn't matter! If you can be better than you are and you aren't trying, that's something to work on - if you are the best you can be at this time and place that's something to be happy about (but back to practice as normal in the morning - don;t ever think it's over, you can always improve!)

Heheh I thought the only place where people care who is better is in Bosnia
I left them there 4 years ago and every time I go for a holiday they play worse and worse - and still talking bull who is better player except Muris of course That's crazy. Play your guitar and enjoy playing, that's the whole point. Muris traveled 1500 miles from Bosnia to London and lost Guitar Idol competition. We happily had a beer straight after the competition. It's all rock and roll man. Turn your volume to 11 and rock. -------------------- Check out my <a href="https://www.guitarmasterclass.net/instructor/Emir-Hot" target="_blank">Instructor profile</a>

It is good to sometimes feel outplayed, you get a nice motivation boost. So don't worry, and just practice, practice, practice

QUOTE (Jesse @ Sep 16 2008, 08:12 PM)  Yup. I'd be like hahaaha you won this time.... and then practice your fingers off and MAKE HIS FACE MELT!!! Indeed! For me it would be a good thing to loose, so I could get motivation to kick his ass after some serious training!
