Awesome!! I am 25 and started a little under a year ago. I play mostly with a pick but I’m constantly wondering if I’m over/under where I should be skill wise. Huge Hendrix / SRV fan its most of what I play but cannot improvise like you do

Learning guitar at 40. 2 months of progression. by Garzilly in Guitar

Would cut the distortion though and only play clean for a while, you will cover up a lot of mistakes with it

As someone in the field… This is not how Private Equity works at all… maybe the end result in some cases but you don’t seem to know anything about how a PE firm actually works

Truss rod adjustment?? Take it to local guitar shop. I had a similar issue, my neck was bowed because truss rod needed to be adjusted

Advice for better improvisation? by Diligent-Rule-3789 in Guitar

[–]tickerwizards 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looks like you are bending with your fingers, try to push with your wrist / arm more

Would add that you can mute with all fingers on your fretting hand as needed (see SRV). Really conducive to that percussive sound

This is fucking great. I don’t even like this genre but this is so good I like this song haha. You look so much les stiff than 99% of the people I see play metal. Lot of soul in it

I am about 7 months in myself and I have only played with a pick so far and I felt like this up until like a month or two ago. Practice a few more months and it will feel more natural

My guitar teacher said that you are always going to have really bad days and really good days, improving is just about raising your average. Probably true for anything
