What im trying to say, is, to sum it up, is that you must be able to commit yourself to the instrument. If not, its just a hobby!

I think this is a good point... If you truly are talented, you CAN have some kind of job revolving around the guitar or music, such as being a store clerk, a teacher, or playing sessions, making an internet site about music... I don't have a lot of talent (I would know by now) but the dedication I gave my instrument pays off everyday, and also at the end of the month... I see truly talented guys, but who do not have the proper attitude to play music profesionnaly, since they haven't got dedication (they think music is not a job)
