Originally posted by plightofthepurebloodI learned the guitar by doing 2 things.1- First, I learned the MAJOR chords, (not the minors, or anything augmented) I got chord diagrams of of the O.L.G.A. google that shizzy......And I educated myself in what a POWER CHORD IS.2-I found a band I liked, with a simple style....In my Case, Nirvana...And I studied their music, and learned their songs through TABULATURE.After three years of sucking, I finally figured out what I was doing.5 years later, I sounded pretty decent. Learned my scales, and worked on picking.And now Every sunday....well, not anymore, because I moved last week, some 3000 K away, I used to go play blues slide guitar, With some buddies at open Mic night.Dont restrict yourself to one kind of music, simply because its what your friends like.My friends Hate country and Blues. So did I. And then I found I had a knack for it, and began to appreciate the music more.Good Luck man. Just dont ever expect the guitar to put food on your table, because thats stupid.

Originally posted by plightofthepurebloodDrace:It all depends on how you set the bar for yourself, on what "decent" i.Dont be Rude.Id be willing to bet that after a year and a half youre just "decent "at one or two genres or styles. But then again, thats just my opinion.Ive met professionals who think they suck, that dont. And some that say how good they are, but can only write one or two types of song. Dont be aarogant.
