How do you rate your guitar playing ???

[mi2tom]

I'm not very good actually

[freedom's door]

I think i play well enough to get the point across, but my biggest problem is inconsistency- some days i really like what i'm playing; others, i just can't seem to get it together.
But one of the things i love about playing is that there is always something new to learn, or practice, or to try and improve upon.

Yes consistency is a big issue . I wonder how did all those great guitarist keep their consistency level up ???

[Jemwielder]

Consistency is all about breaking down barriers during practice time. I have my hot and cold days but they're starting to be less drastic. I think you're as good as you let yourself get. I bust my ass on a daily basis and plan to make something of my playing. So I guess it's all about the time you're willing to log and your confidence level

I suck! I'm in a major playing slump right now and I feel like I haven't learned anything new in months.

Be cool and keep trying I'm not really good but I feel that I'm getting better Just keep on pushing yourself

[btangel]

I suck

[JJEMMER777]

I don't think one can rate ones own guitar playing. Leave that to the listeners But I hear ya...arrghhhh! Keep pushin!!!

[bonehead189]

I play good, considering I've only been playing for 5 months. I push myself everday, and figure out new licks and runs. (mostly from Guitar World!)

lol....20 years here...and I still don't think I'm good Maybe I'm too hard on myself, but it's a mental thing for me. Back when I started I used to think I was REAL good, lol....but looking back, I was terrible. I think if you ever get to the point where you think you are good (or should I say GREAT), then that is when you stop progressing as a player..but that's just me

I suck donkey balls, but at least I haven't gave up!

[Tom Gilroy]

I'm TECHNICALLY good. I feel my music is always lacking.

But others wont

I kick so much butt, you should all be worshipping me.








ok, ok, so I'm a hack too, but I just wanted to break up the self-abuse.
