How To Develop Creativity In Your Guitar Playing – Part 1
Article by Tom Hess
Do you struggle with becoming a more creative and self expressive musician? Many guitarists run into this problem as they begin to feel more comfortable with the physical aspects of their guitar playing.

Guitar Lessons On Line: The Fast Track
Article by Rolf Joho
If you have ever read the biography of any rock star, you will have realized that they did not “make it overnight”, as it so often seems. For most of these musicians, they labored away, in their bedrooms, practicing for years and years. There are few, if any, overnight sensations in the music industry. Almost every star today had a dream as a child to become a musician, a star, a songwriter – and they worked very hard for a very long time to accomplish that.
When it comes to guitarists, the number of hours required to become somewhat accomplished on the guitar is staggering. A young man of 14, who spends two hours a day practicing his guitar, will have practiced 7,000 hours before he makes the stage at the age of 24. A lot of this practice is actually useless, because of a lack of lessons and a lack of guidance. In order to succeed on the g ....> Continue Here! <--

Question by msK: Is Guitar Hero 3 any good?
I’ve read a few reviews and everyone seems to love it. I have a Nintendo Wii and was looking to get GH3 for it. I’m not a massive fan of rock music but there are a few songs I like on it, like
Rock n Roll All Night
Slow Ride
When You Were Young
Miss Murder
(those are the ones that spring to mind), and I’m not that much of a hardcore gamer.
Is GH3 only worth getting if you loveeeeeeeee rock music?
