Dec 4 2010, 06:13 PM	Beginner Instructor Posts: 472 Joined: 11-April 07	Hey GMC, I've been thinking about this recently, and it seems to me that I tend to progress a little more quickly when I focus on one style of playing, or even one person's style of playing. For a while now, John Mayer has been who I've been wanting to play like the most, but recently I've changed to another guitarist's style. Who do you aspire to be able to play like?

PS. And if that one is not available anymore I would be content with the skills of Joe Bonamassa as well! You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.
