I think another thing is...nobody around my town is willing to give advice...they all want $$$

I have no family history in music.
Everything i have i earned...

I feel like the only chance i have with guitar is "reading music" and becomming really good at that. Shredding and all those tricks (some of them i can do)...just aren't meant for me.

And i'm a patient person...i guess in 10 years we'll see how far i have come.

I'm rambling.
