Any experienced guitar players have advice on how to learn better?
I played very little in highschool and now, 15 years later, I have the urge to go back to it. I've been playing for an hour or so most days for the last month which I know isn't a lot but lets be honest, it's just for my own enjoyment, I have no illusions of being a middle aged rock star.
Anyway I was wondering if people had any advice, good resources, sheet music that isn't garbage?
In my position would you go the self taught route or is it really important to have a tutor? I'm particularly concerned about picking up bad technique and then practicing that, I feel like that was a big part of why I gave up in the first place - fucking up the same things no matter how many times I did them because I learned them wrong.
Thanks all.
Hey, sorry about late reply, didn't have a lot of time lately and I wanted to be able to take your post in properly before responding.
I totally get what you're saying though, while all the advice I got is great and very appreciated I think I also needed people to just tell me to go for it and maybe make some mistakes. So that I knew I wasn't missing some "right" way to do things.
So thanks for typing that up, definitely taken in a positive spirit, not patronizing at all. I've got a bit more confidence to just get stuck in now and worry less about doing it wrong. I'll be back if I have some more specific questions later on though.
Fuckin go for it bud.
