I'm about 6 months into playing guitar. I don't know exactly how good I am for this time period, but I have been practicing a few things.


I can play If I Could be a Constellation by Kessoku Band, I can roughly play the alternate picking intro of Thunderstruck, I've learned how to economy pick, and I am learning how to hybrid pick. I have also learned most of Playing God by Polyphia and can do most of Sweet Child of Mine except for the super fast parts of the solo. I am starting to be able to play along with tabs on easy songs on the first try, I can kind of do Crazy Train But some parts are just too fast. I can do most Asian Kung-Fu Generation songs and simple chords in pop songs (though I'm not the best at chords yet). I also kind of suck at finger picking.


I kind of want to know how I'm doing so far and if there is anything I should practice next. Any suggestions would be appreciated, thank you!
