The name of the thread say it all. I would like to know how i can spice my rythme playing. The only thing i can do when improvising is playing the same stupid powerchords (with an interval of a 5'th) over the tracks. Depending on which key ofcourse. And i have a real hard time learning all sections of my favorite songs...

Resently iv just been feeling like quitting guitar! It's more frustrating than i could ever imagine when i first started out....Im not getting any better?
Seems like the only advises iv been getting is around scales, iv tried that and it diden't work in the way i want it too...it's a great theory background ofcourse, but im not getting any better at ''playing'' music. I want to play music, not just be a ''technical'' guitar phyco.

I hope maybe a private teacher can help me....or maybe it's me being a total non-talent!? Has everyone gone through the same path that im going through right now?

I don't seem to evolve either as a lead guitarist, or rythmeguitarist. It's expecially rythme guitar that i lack in....

I quess a private teacher would be the thing i need?

i really can't belive that i have not even learned any full songs yet with the exeption of knocking on heavens door (guns N roses version)
And iv been playing 1 year now.

Am i maybe overtrying to play proper guitar? Am i trying too hard? 4 hour practice every day...

Don't let me be a pain in the ass, or a waste of your time. I just felt like telling someone, you know.....

Playing music is suppose to be fun, speaking the truth it's not fun for me. Just hard work, too hard
