I am like that. I always have to keep at something until its perfect. I keep trying and get annoyed if i get one note wrong.
By virtue of their electrical properties, tubes generate a special waveform when they're saturated, which is why tube engineering has tremendous tonal advantages over solid state or DSP solutions, particularly for crunch and lead sounds. Tubes enter the saturation zone gradually or softly, which lends tube-driven tone its trademark yet totally unique character.

Yeah Raven I have the problem all the time.... I am a left handed person that plays guitar right handed, so since I don't use my dominant hand for fretting, the old noodle gets some scrambled signals to my hands and my fingers decide to go on strike.
So. If you throw a cat out of a car window, is it considered "kitty litter"?

No,i never had stuff on guitatricks. i did use to have alot of stuff on the internet of my old band, on mp3.com and whatnot and my solo projects. I had 25 songs up, and a friend of mine,Johan, discovered that 8 of the songs people stole. He sent me their websites where they were portraying the songs as their own.

I might put them back up, just dont know when.

Technically you could sue them for royalties and damages or whatnot since the copywrite laws have changed... From what I remember anytime you release anything in any kind of media form, whether it be the internet, CD, or written, you are automatically protected under the copywrite law. You don't have to register it anymore like in the olden days....

Anytime....
You can probably find a book on it in your local library.
Something about the Musicians Guide to Copywrite laws of some sh*t like that...

Better yet click HERE for more information on it... :)

I'd say about 5 hours, give or take. I guess it depends on what you're practicing, some times you can overdo it. Course some times you shouldn't really consider it practice. Just depends I guess.

Well, between 2-5 hours a day. But only if "praciticing" means playing anything at all. I mean, I only spend 1,5 - 3 hours playing lessons and excercises. The rest is playing songs and improvising..

Do you pracitice when you read theory? Or watching music on TV? I think so.. You put both in to your mind and perhaps you use it when you play..

:mad: holy jealousy batman!!!! I see 2 hrs a day 7 hrs a day... anyone wanna trade lives for a month or so??? please???

I try to practice at least 3-4 times a week for about an hour or 2 each time...
unfortunately 3 kids, a wife and a new house make that all but a pipe dream!!!

but when I can, I'll sit and do scales or chord progressions or whatever kind of exercise I can think of for 40 min or so and then I just have fun the rest of the time....

oh - and again, time permitting, I get together with a buddy and jam about 1 -2 times a week...
