long time learner

question to all, I have been around the guitar for 50 years, I can play most chords, switch between them easily, I know a lot of scales and theory but is it just having no musical brain, I can watch someone use a scale to make fabulous blues and sounds and know exactly where they are playing and the scale beeen used but when I can to do same, still sounds like a boring scale Am I not destined to play, is there such a thing as not a musical bone in my body

Hi Lee,

You may want to try learning a few songs, if you haven't already, or try jamming over a track. Jamming or improvising really forces you to play with a more feel, and emotion. Try one of our jam tracks here: https://www.guitartricks.com/jam.php

Here's also a great tutorial on playing with emotion, taught by Anders: https://www.guitartricks.com/lesson.php?input=21283&s_id=1705

I hope this helps!
