I think their are two kinds of guitar players. 1st, playing all the rock, metal, pop, classical, ect. music that you hear on the radio. 2nd, making up your own stuff. I have 2 different opinions on this. I think if you make up your stuff your doing great. Another, is if your playing all for example: AC/DC, Metallica, Led Zepplin, ect. their songs you could learn from that and become better as you go on. Please feel free to post any replys.
