WELL

round 2 years ago checked out some basic chords [major/minor] on the net got info by asking some ppl around. and started to learn your basic chords and how to change smoothly between chords progressions..

then on to barre chords [which i still havnt mastered to my likings on an acoustic]

then i started worrying about theory and proper notes as opposed to tab. found a good teacher and started to take lessons.

scales, some modes, now we're gonna start triads soon. hehe
I never wanted to sound like anyone, meaning sure i have loads of musicians i admire [not just guiatrists] but i only use em to listen to their music, and expect mine to be just as good..if i may dare even better.

i can never learn anyone's song and just stick to that, lately ive been trying to express anything, with the basic knowledge i have of guitar and its terrible i am so frustrated i have stopped doing scales and everything else thats gonna help me improve my technique and stamina - whic is bad -

but i just can't get with that feeling great cus i know some scales etc.. i want more improv, more sounds that ive made..u know.

anyway if it gets better ill let you know - i would be writing something hehe. I need a fresh start again to get into the learning thing cus focusing on just sounds made me forget the technical side of playing, you really need a balance of both to be good i think.

now everything's bothering me, the sound of my guitar, mostly the lack of ideas, versatility etc...PLUS i have no idea how to write a solo...or how to make certain sounds certain techniques,

maybe its too early since ive only been doing this for 2 yrs, but still it frustrates me and then i lose the eagerness to get any better, cus i get all negative. blargh
anyone else here feel the same way sort of ?
