I get mails telling me how funny my tunes are, or cool, or how much I shred etc...
AND I get mails telling me how bad I suck, how I should stop polluting the net with my sloppy sound etc...
The guitar community is pretty weird, you tell a guy he's good when you aren't close to play like him, but when you have pretty much the same level, you try to kill the guy with comments (your timing was off etc...) I know that's what happens, because I do exactly the same...
My question is, who do you turn to when you try to have feedback on your tunes/technique/sound, other than your wife's 'great tune hon'' or your student's 'how did you play that lick?'?
