9 years or so... I started really young and have had different spurts in which I really "grow"...all the rest of the time I just try to polish what I have so far...all by ear, but I think I want to get some real theory under my belt...

About 10 years. I took 3 years off at one point to have a kid and get married. I started playing frequently again about 2 years ago after I found this site

1.5 years and I still completely suck. During that time there were week long breaks, times I did play were not long. This semester I really tried to give it a lot of time but have been busy too.

So all together I would say a consistent 6 months.

One of these days I might be good.

how did you pull that off? i play ALL the time....i guess i am 3 months behind you tho...

what can you play?

the best i can do right now is SMTS, WWYS...um....and the beginning of the stone...i guess...

Pickles · Post by **Pickles** » Wed Mar 19, 2003 10:52 pm

i can do those too, but i can also pull off satellite, working on R&R, DIDO, and some of those other fun things. its funny, theres this one kid i was talking to tonight whose been playing a bit over a year and i told him about playing satellite on my 12 string and hes like 'oh man youre so fricken awesome...' - i constantly practice. no lessons whatsoever. in fact im going to be giving lessons soon. nothin special, chords, strumming, maybe some fingerpicking, etc.. good stuff

Jay · Post by **Jay** » Wed Mar 19, 2003 10:54 pm

yeah i can play those too, and OSW, i forgot....rhyme and reason i can play, but for some reason not with the CD....i play it at the right speed, but when i play with the CD, it's intimidating or something and i mess up.

can you sing and play? i still cant :-/
