1st off I think you have to sell your soul to the devil!

No really, why would you want to play like him? Sure he is fast but he has no soul or feeling in his playing. He sounds like a chipmunk on crack or something. Now if you had asked "what do i have to do to be as good as Stevie Ray Vaughn?" That's the question! ;) 3or 4 hours a days probably wouldn't even cut it to play like him. I read somewhere years ago where he says that he practices on average 10 to 12 hours a day. That is just plain crazy. As already said, I would focus more on quality that quantity. Another question to ask yourself or think about is...."Do you think Malmsteen will be remembered as a guitar God 25 years from now?" I sure don't think so!
