Guitar Player's Thread

I'm sure I'm not alone when one always wants to know whats THIS guitar players secret or why is he is good, or why cant I shred like that? And usualy more than half the time whenever a artist or guitar player is asked that they always just say. "Practice, Practice, Practice" I know Alexi Laiho and Glen Drover of Megadeth himself has said this more than a couple times in different interviews and etc. But my question into response into that is... PRACTICE WHAT EXACTLY!? Not to go on some crazy rant, but I would really like to know what Each artists definition of "practice, practice, practice" Is. What do they mean by that? What to them is "Practicing?" I would like to know so I could Practice those things haha. I just wish there would a lot more clarifying definition when it comes to this question asked to so many guitar heroes. Tell US what we should practice! We want to get better to just like you, and if you said you did with practicing, well at least give us a gist of what You think we should focus on. Anyone have any ideas or comments to the 'ol "Practice, Practice, Practice."
As Warheart has told me before, do not worry about what your practicing, worry about how you are practicing.
 
Let me put it this way: Beauty is a thing you are born with. So you can practice very much with the result: Being beautiful AND a kickass player at the same time.


This would be the best option, but because I practice too little, I'm confined to look good :lol:



:erk: internetz :erk:

lol...yes the best option would be to look good AND play good.
but you missed my point. my point is who cares if that guy looks like a nerd? as long as he can play as well as he does, he shouldn't give 2 shits about his looks and shouldn't care what other ppl judge him as either.
 
i made a observation while watching iron maiden rock in rio
the more powerchords you use the more it sounds the same like there main and intro riff and wtv are kickass but the when they use powerchords all the time it comes up sounding like the same
 
I really want to buy it and need some opinions on it, and experiences.
oh btw, 100th page ftw! gratz Homer! and everyone else! we sure do talk about guitars a lot!

I didn't miss your point, I totally agree with you :p
I just wanted to make this stupid joke :lol:
