"Practice doesn't make perfect; it makes permanent."

That's something to keep in mind. Make sure you focus on what and how you are practicing. The types of techniques you are drilling into your system will stick. Good and bad.

Whatever your practice routine looks like, make sure it is full of quality practice.

Good luck!]]> Guitar Players Discussion timtheshredder https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/question-on-practicing-guitar/#post-388625 https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/question-on-practicing-guitar/#post-388123 Thu, 11 Jan 2018 22:51:39 +0000 Guitar Players Discussion LessPaul https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/question-on-practicing-guitar/#post-388123 https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/question-on-practicing-guitar/#post-388119 Tue, 02 Jan 2018 03:24:46 +0000 many encourage in the middle of the neck in between the two middle fingers, which I felt a little wobbly at times.

One thing that I'm still confused at is seeing people's recommendations on thumb position behind the neck. I feel more comfortable placing it near to the edge of the neck , but many encourage in the middle of the neck in between the two middle fingers, which I felt a little wobbly at times.

Could you guys give me an example for different position in different styles of playing?
1)Legato
2)alternate picking
3)doing thrill licks on first and second strings

Thanks for the replies anyway, you guys are awesome.
