Your biggest guitar mistake(s) ?
Mine would be not mastering 'timing'. Some people are gifted with perfect timing, mine... not so much. I should have put more effort into playing with tapes/CDs and/or a metronome. Then again, when I took guitar lessons back when I was 11, the instructor didn't elaborate the importance of timing, instead he was more interested in teaching me to shred. Guess I really didn't know better and didn't have the opportunity to be in a band as I lived out in the country and was too young to drive to the city.
2nd mistake was selling my first guitar. Little did I know, that guitar will always hold a special piece inside my heart. Sounds cheesy, I know.. but if I know then what I know now, I'd have kept that axe, it was really cool USA made Peavey T-15 .. Oh, and my USA Peavey Tracer too. I miss both of those axes. !!! What is your biggest mistake(s)? |
I wish that I had practiced more with a metronome too. I'm trying to be more disciplined about practice now, but it's hard to find time. I'd say my biggest guitar mistake is focusing too much on building or buying the next one, rather than enjoying what I have.

I wish I would have never sold 2 Les Paul Standards and a Les Paul Custom.:wallbash:

My biggest guitar mistake was trading away my Takamine 400G 12 string acoustic for a 4 track cassette recorder.
|
My biggest mistake playing wise was to not continue to practice playing guitar when I took up playing drums. While it did improve my timing significantly, it set me back aways with regards to my other abilities.
Gear wise, it'd have to be getting rid of my '65 ES335 12 string. |
Mine was selling my Ric 430. It had some issues, but had I known anything about guitar (besides how to try to play), they probably could've been resolved. One almost never sees 400-series Rics around any more.

Hmmm... I'd say I stunted my creative growth early on by being a tab whore. I've definitely worked my way out of it though.
