Stuff to keep in mind:\r
\r
Keep it simple, and repeat good ideas and sounds you like. \r
\r
Try to play whats in your head, not what youre looking at (like those chord grids up there) or what your fingers have memorized.\r
\r
Be expressive! Try to add hammer-ons, string rakes, palm mutes, pull-offs, bends, slides, vibrato, or whammy bar to as many notes as you can! Listen to the pros, I guarantee thats what theyre doing, unless theyre shredding at a million notes a second. \r
\r
Most importantly: Learn some useful vocabulary! You must either copy some phrases from someone else, or come up with your own phrases to play. Music is a language with MANY dialects - you MUST learn the basics of the language to sound good, AND a the idiosyncrasies of the dialect to sound hip! That, or youre some kind of genius who automatically knows what do do (doubtful) so dont be lazy! Learn some basic blues licks, they will take you far! I learned some Dave Gilmour and Jimi Hendrix licks 20 years ago and I still play em all the time!\r
