Signing in for zen guitar tuition could be the best choice you make to reach your musical ambition. You can discover the passion of playing much quicker and easier than on your own because you get the finger dexterity, theory, fluidity, musicianship and sound you need.

You can wait for a lifetime practising in the corner of your bedroom, but from what I can see not many people succeed learning how to play the guitar just on their own, unless they began at a very early age or in their teens.

All of us have heard legends of self taught guitarists who emerge from the darkest and biggest ghetto and spread their wings over the music scene. Young musicians take example from these heroic characters believing that they can achieve exactly what their role model guitarist did and everything without any help whatsoever.

The unheroic and more truthful reality is much less glamorous. No Jedi reached mastery without true knowledge from a person who could balance the Force.

Thats why so many young guitar players try to invent their own techniques and work on their own style without guitar tuition before they learn how to play the instrument well.

Its sort of like the spirit is willing but the flesh is weak syndrome. Its a brave gesture and should not be viewed with a patronising eye. They struggle to play the simplest passage yet still strive to be ingenious pioneers of a new music.

If you communicate to the young, fresh and idealistic nature of visionaries, they dont take offence, but in fact appreciate the new window you have shown them.

If you told them what you really think, namely, that they should polish that entire innovative noise at a guitar lesson with a superior air of snobery, then you close the channel from the river to the ocean, so to speak.

I know what it means to a young player when you tell him that they should undergo some sort of training with a pro. They feel like they've lost the rebel battle if they cant play as good as their self-taught forerunners who succeeded with no help at all.

Whats more they see teachers as a bad influence, convinced that every tutor will try to impose his style on them at his guitar sessions. Ultimately you take or leave what you want! If you want to literally wipe years off your efforts, then give me ring.
