Well, Im a frustrated guitar player. Never taken any lessons, I can strum open cowboy chords and make little tunes and chord progressions till the sun goes round b ut I cant play a lick of lead. I do the finger exercises but never am consistent with synchronizing my pick and fret hand. I sometimes wonder whats the point. ill never be great so y pound sand trying. A lot of things seem confusing to me, from how to adjust the controls on my amp to working my pedals and basically understanding how to utilize scale patterns etc If you don't play guitar and watch me play youll think Im great, but any real player knows where im at. I like all music. From Zeppelin anf Hendrix to Metallica, Dave Matthews, Phil Keaggy . Heck I even think prince is a great underrated guitar player.Just now trying to learn how to record but its overwhelming these recording programs. I feel like a need a degree in engineering, I need my hand held and help in all areas. I guess I should mention im 39 and neverseem to have the time for me, but that's gotta change. I wish somehow I could get the veil lifted and the light to come on
Currently my gear is: Yamaha APX500 acoustic electric Tradition strat style electric Boss ME-25 Audiobox interface with studio one Marshall MG30 amp hears a little diddy with a digitech drum beat https://soundcloud.com/instrumental-prayer/upside-down This post has been edited by Cajassam: Aug 2 2013, 06:09 AM -------------------- Im supposed to be famous

Hey there man! Welcome to GMC - this will surely be the place in which a team of dedicated dudes - students and instructors alike, will lend a helping hand in lifting that veil
First off - you need to start believing in yourself - if you don't believe that you have the ability to learn, assimilate and use information with success, you are failing without even starting your trials. Let's start with coordination - this lesson here is a great start in understanding rhythmic subdivisions - the basis of lead and rhythm playing: https://www.guitarmasterclass.net/ls/Picking-Hand-Basics/ Let me know if you want to develop the subject, deal?
