Not feeling right

Post by JonTheSpaceMan »

does anyone get into a "slump" of guitar playing? Like when you just cant make your fingers work and nothing sounds right and yourt guitar wont tune? I was trying to play warehouse and rhyme and reason a few minutes ago and i couldnt do it worth crap. This has been going on for a long time... i have been playing for 4 years and i am quite good i thought but now i suck. What is going on.
Please help me...there are worshipers on my ass and chest.

That happens to me alot. I'll get bored with playing the same stuff over and over until one day I get back into and play for 9 hours straight. Though I normally play for 6 even when I'm bored of it.

I usually play best after a 2 or so day break, don't ask why, it's usually always the most fluid playing

I only play if Im in the mood. Im feeling food, things seem to go right...or never wrong at least. Drums is different. I can feel awsome and have a bad day.
