When did you realize your playing sucks?!?!

Re: When did you realize your playing sucks?!?!

you guys ever do that trick where you turn your guitar upside down and go from right hand playing to left? (or, vice versa, if you're a lefty). It's a cool way to see how far you've come, and makes you remember first picking up a guitar how hard it was.

I have always known that my playing sucks, but it's not so noticable unless there's a guitar in my hand.

Funny. This is almost word for word what I was going to say.

Everytime I think too much and don't let the feel get involved in my playing...then it sucks

I don't know when I first realized it, but I am rudely reminded of it every time I pick up the guitar and start to play! It's getting kinda old after 30 years...

Re: When did you realize your playing sucks?!?!

It's not that my playing sucks, it is my effort that sucks. I believe I have some potential, but I just play computer games most of the time. Sometimes I do not practice for an entire week. It's from band rehersal to band rehersal, or from gig to gig. This has been going on for ages. I am a game junkie.

Also whenever I am playing: i am perfectly aware of every little imperfection that I am having in each phrase or passage. So it's not like I do not know my mistakes. It's just laziness. I think what I need is to enforce a 2 hour a day practice policy, and only after that I could move on to the games.

So are you any good spanking the n00bs?

I'm no good.

I'm struggling at finding my true self regarding my guitar playing.. I'm into all sorts of music, so I'm more into being all over the place, rather than actually getting good in a few branches..

My rthym playing is cool, but my lead lines suck. I basically pause or just stick to rthym when a lead solo kicks in. I'll spare everyone my painfull attempts of weak solo's...
