Just play it, my dude. I bought a fancy PRS because it fit my hands right, and it had a ding on the neck so the guy didn’t want it.

I straight up suck at guitar and can only play shitty 90’s alt and some pentatonic stuff, but it’s still fun.

If you want to get better at just making stuff up on the guitar, learn the pentatonic scale, pick four to six notes, and just jam with those notes. I like (2) 4-6, (3) 4-6, and (4) 4-6. You can bounce around between those and sound pretty cool.

This is helpful, thanks! I've been using Justin Guitar to learn, and have only learned one pentatonic so far, but I'm interested to learn others. Cheers!
