Hey! I just signed up to this site a few days ago to try and break free from the 'plateau' effect that I'm suffering from. I've been playing for just about 8 years, and have started taking it more seriously for the past 5 years. I have 2 years of guitar lessons under my belt and continue to perform twice a week, and play/practice maybe 2 other times during the week. I have definitely hit a wall here, and I would like to get faster and learn more theory. I think Ive grabbed onto some bad habits over the past few years too...and I'm wondering if anyone has any tips to get me started toward my goal of getting faster...

Ive tried a few of the exercises here but I jsut cant seem to get 'fluid'...I get jsut to the point where its pretty quick...but Im not jumping over that 'wall' of quickness...

Any tips...encouragement...or testimonies are GREATLY appreciated ;) !!!

Thanks,

Ty
