I'm playing for almost 3 years and can't transcribe a fast solo...
so what!? i can't play note to note a solo by hearing or it will take me hours to do it, but because i'm listening to it i still get ideas from it to my improvisation
people who learn by hearing the song and playing it can get better much faster than guys like me, but hey man did you've heard of ac/dc's angus young?
they guy is recognized as one of the best hard-rock lead guitarists ever and he admited like dozens of times he could never learn songs by hearing them..
so...
if you better than angus... i'm going to sleep
