Well, when i started playing, i played acoustic for about 2 years, learning easy songs such as the love song ( Tesla), and silient lucidity ( queensryche).

It took me about 2 years to get my strat, and now i focus on more techinical stuff. But i have to say. I say i play about 2 hours aa week day. about 3/4 of that time is fun stuff. The other 1/4 is the techinical stuff.
