^That's the good thing about YouTube, though. I have to admit, I've also learned a lot of things from watching many videos there. But isn't "watching" or ostensive learning perhaps the best way to know a couple of things, if not most things? :roll:

Listening to others make music is awesome, daming magaling! And having your music available for more people, which normally eh mga sikat lang ang may opportunity, is a great thing. It doesn't make anyone suck, it just shows the many talents out there, and how they differ from each other, also mapapansin mo rin yung differences in opinion and preferences. :D

Seeing other musicians better than you, is a great plus. why? bec. you'll be inspired to practice more, work harder, adding extra hours on those scales,finger dexterity excersises, so on so forth. In my experience, any musician that I've met who said that they are already good, was stuck as to were they are,no more improvements, magaling na daw sila,hangang doon nalang sila. I always say to my self "maraming pa akong bigas na kakainin" and true enough nalampasan ko na iyng mga nagyayabang sa akin, hehehe Utube is a great insperation :-D

i already know i suck but i also know that im good. it dependes on who I'm/you're comparing myself/yourself to... i also dont need youtube to inspire me. i practice and play guitar because i want to, (fun/leisure/enjoyment/ jamming with other musicians/ make people sing along etc...) not because someone is better than me and i need to be better than them....

depende yan siguro sa outlook mo in life. when i see people better than me, which is very often, i get inspired to work harder. i don't get discouraged. if you think you suck, negative thinking yun eh. it will neither help you as a guitarist nor will it help you as a person. dapat positive ang pag-iisip natin. music isn't a sport anyway. if we see someone better than us, let's just enjoy it and learn from the experience. i'm not saying we should deny our shortcomings. being realistic is also a good thing. it'll help us determine where we are and where we need or want to be as guitarists. i prefer to look at the glass as half-full. so if you see someone twice as good as you, you don't half-suck, you're half good! if you think this way, baka mag-stabilize pa blood pressure mo! :wink: a little positive thinking never hurt anyone. :-)

Before, there was no Youtube and life was harder for every guitarist. If you feel you suck because Youtube made you realize it, then learn from Youtube. It's there to teach you.

yeah, i think we all suck in one way or another. :lol:
pero, yun nga ginagawa ko na lang reference yung youtube. halimbawa meron ako di makuha na part ng song, naghahanap ako ng cover na maayos tapos yun na gagayahin ko. haha! :lol:
just use it to your advantage. :wink:

If you always compare yourself to others, you'll ALWAYS suck :evil:
Music is more than some competition, no wonder why a lot of music these days were easily consumable, nothing different from junk foods.

No, I know I suck even before YouTube. But it made my belief firm that the majority of people are d!cks. Critics are like soldiers who have never been in an actual battle, but end up shooting those who are laying on the ground.
