When Great Playing Feels Just Out of Reach
If you’re a guitarist with some experience under your belt, you already have a sense for what truly great playing is like.
You’ve heard it in the playing of John Mayer, David Gilmour, or Mark Knopfler, who can inspire us or move us to tears with what from the outside might look like just a simple scale or melody.
You know how their playing, along with so many singer-songwriters, draws us in because it tells a story – their tone and note choice conveys just the right feel, they create extraordinary solos from seemingly basic scales, and they know exactly how much or how little tension to add to each phrase.
But you also know how elusive that level of playing can feel at times. And instead of expressive freedom, the following might sound more familiar:
You might be able to play through a famous solo and hit all of the notes and rhythms, but feel like something is still missing
You might find that your mind is so concentrated on the technical aspects of playing, you’re not able to relax and lose yourself in the music as you’ve always dreamed of doing
Or, you might feel stuck playing within a particular key or scale, and wish you could break free from limitations in order to express yourself more fluently through your music
These roadblocks are ones that every ambitious guitarist – including me – has encountered.
And at times they might make us wonder if another level of playing, guided by ear and feel, is actually feasible… and if we have what it takes to get there.
But the good news is that you might be closer to overcoming them than you think.
Because developing more freedom on the guitar is something every guitarist can do.
You just need to know how to approach it…
