It doesn't really matter if you pursue a career or not by playing the guitar.

But I can tell you, once you reach 30 or 40 guitar playing will be just a thing you love doing. May it be you're successful in your chosen field or not. If you'll be working on an 8 hour job, you'll just itch to find some people in your office with the common interest and be happy with weekend jams.

sapul! I'm doing office job these days but I played professionally for a few years before. I got my own studio now and the usual highlight of a boring week is a light drinking session with one or two buddies while playing some music. we don't even bother with the technical stuff we used to do. Just fun music we can sing ourselves hoarse. (with more wrong lyrics as the bottles piles up)

Bottom line: masaya at masarap maggitara. Why treat it as an insurmountable challenge? If you love your instrument and your music, everything else becomes secondary, harsh realities notwithstanding.

i doubt bro.. i think if you just like playing, gadgets or things di nagmamatter i have a lot of friends who plays really well at they just using behringer fx, me also i was stuck with nothing(but i'm not saying i'm good) noon, just an acoustic guitar that i bought in sta mesa, but it never really hinders me to play because i love the guitar, money doesn't really counts as being a guitarist..

I only play with a shredhead and a wah. that's my only rig throughout my 10 years of playing guitar, just a dirt pedal and wah...

...and I haven't stopped playing!!!

A few years ago, it actually came to a point where I simply set the guitar aside and live a "normal life"...

then again...

...abnoy nga pala ko, so anong "normal" ang pinagsasasabi ko?

ayun, I got that job-that-you-all-probably-know-I-once-had

I left it for personal reasons though, but that doesn't mean my guitar-playing days are over.

kaya ang lesson:

Kung duda kang madumi yung fishball, sa suka mo isawsaw...

read between the lines; don't take life TOO seriously

I will leave you with this quote:

"Sometimes you want to give up the guitar, you'll hate the guitar. But if you stick with it, you're gonna be rewarded."

By whom you say?

Jimi Hendrix

And I remember another famous guitarist (forgot his name) who said that he liked the guitar because among all the other instruments, it is that instrument which allows you to be familiar with it but will never ever let you make the master of it. So maybe that's why guitarists have this common feeling.

super naka relate ako dito. same tayo ng situation, walang maka jamming, tapos intro lang na tutugtog. parang di na nag iimprove. T_T pero nothings impossible with practice practice and practice.

Ako rin frustrated guitarist and keyboardist. pero kahit gaano ako nabwibwisit dahil hindi ko magets ung tono or ung style, di ko sinasabi ko sa sarili kong i quit or i hate this life. I still pursue kasi i want to learn e. No pain no gain..

and besides, nasa sayo na yan kung ano ipraprioritize mo. Bakit naman ako? nakakapagtrabaho pa ko and still find time to do music.
