The 'level' you're at is defined more by your overall ability with the instrument than the ability to play particular things in my opinion.

You might be able to learn 'For the love of God' note perfect, and not be able to play anything else. That would make you a beginner with a hell of a party piece! :D

Level is also subjective - it used to be that I wrote 'advanced' on some of my lessons that are now listed as intermediate, as my 'advanced' lessons have become more advanced. Likewise, if I see some music in 'Guitarist' magazine listed as advanced, I'll be able to do it easily, but in 'Guitar Techniques' when they say advanced most of the time it really is!

Think of it in terms of what you have achieved Vs what you want to achieve. The 'levels' don't mean much. Beginners always think they are intermediate, intermediates always think they are advanced and most advanced players I know think they are intermediate....

Your view changes - the more you know, the more you realise how little you know.... :rolleyes:
