And some others mentioned buying a pedal.....I say get a V-amp2. It was recommended to me by someone who hasn't steered me wrong yet. You'll have a lot of fun with a V-amp2!

I would also add if you want a little quicker self gratification, come join us in the online jams section of the forums.

That'll get some new juices flowing.

Just ask Margaret. :D]]> Guitar Players Discussion Bish https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/oh-hey-who-put-this-wall-here/#post-206645 https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/oh-hey-who-put-this-wall-here/#post-206591 Tue, 31 Oct 2006 19:36:00 +0000 Guitar Players Discussion Misanthrope https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/oh-hey-who-put-this-wall-here/#post-206591 https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/oh-hey-who-put-this-wall-here/#post-206574 Tue, 31 Oct 2006 18:11:55 +0000 eventually something happens and i leap or soar to the next level. only to eventually feel the plateau again.
it is endless. I think they call it learning.

I get inspired to make that leap to the next level.
playing with others is best. I find mtself outside my comfort zone more often. it is there when stuff happens. I find myself playing things I never thought of.

play along with a CD. get a new pedal.
there are all sorts of ways of getting over the wall or off the plateau.
but you have to continue to play thru all the crap till it happens. What he said

some other suggestions...

find a new band or artist, and learn a song or two by them, try avoiding tabs, it's always more rewarding to do it by ear.

learn a song by an old favorite.

buy a pedal!(yeah, I've got GAS, but i like the smell of it)]]> Guitar Players Discussion Snoogans775 https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/oh-hey-who-put-this-wall-here/#post-206534 https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/oh-hey-who-put-this-wall-here/#post-206524 Tue, 31 Oct 2006 08:19:40 +0000
Go on... first, some up with a simple intro, then come up with the music for the verses (make each verse's music the same to make it easier), then the chorus, etc. Just find a few chord changes that sound good together and you are on your way!

Someone showed me how to do this after I had been playing a few years and it really changed how I felt about playing. I am not a great songwriter, but God, it is fun to do!]]> Guitar Players Discussion ColoradoFenderBender https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/oh-hey-who-put-this-wall-here/#post-206524 https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/oh-hey-who-put-this-wall-here/#post-206517 Tue, 31 Oct 2006 06:36:03 +0000 I think the best suggestion is to play with other musicians. It's the best motivation, and the best way to get out of a rut.]]> Guitar Players Discussion xg5a https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/oh-hey-who-put-this-wall-here/#post-206517 https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/oh-hey-who-put-this-wall-here/#post-206508 Tue, 31 Oct 2006 05:31:08 +0000
It really is that easy.

What do you want to learn how to do? What are your weaknesses. Address them!

If you don't want to play other people's songs, how about learning some jazz? Every time you play it's a new song that's entirely your own.Jody Fisher has a series of books on learning Jazz guitar (Beginning Jazz Guitar, Intermediate Jazz Guitar, Mastering Jazz Guitar Chord/Melody and Mastering Jazz Guitar Improvisation) that will take you from a beginner to a fairly high level. It's by Alfred Publishing.

Or maybe you want to write your own songs? Start seeing what lyrics you can put together and setting them to music.

Or maybe you would like to play with other people? Go find some folks who want to play what you like and start a band.]]> Guitar Players Discussion kingpatzer https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/oh-hey-who-put-this-wall-here/#post-206508 https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/oh-hey-who-put-this-wall-here/#post-21464 Tue, 31 Oct 2006 04:17:50 +0000 Guitar Players Discussion AudioBoy https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/oh-hey-who-put-this-wall-here/#post-21464
