The Ultimate Guitar Lesson to Becoming a #1 Guitarist  - Read Daily...

    I dream of getting this months guitar magazine, displaying the newest guitar heroes, hot tablature and the sheet music too! I deliberately hang on to the magazine, keeping it out of site, until I can find a place to rest and have time to fully learn, from all the great guitar players and have time to study each riff.

    Once I am in my most comfortable position, I take a few deep breaths, I look at the cover in anticipation of what's inside.

    I close my eyes for a moment, then,

    I burst into reading every notation and begin to study every player!

    As I look at the pictures of the great guitarists, I see myself one day, as a star. I see myself parking my tour bus at the outside of a sold out concert arena.  At the front of the stadium, the huge sign has my name on it, followed by the words Guitar God.

    I get done warming up to some guitar exercises & riffs and begin to exit my bus, only to walk through a large number of fans, who want me and my autograph. I sign a few of them with a scribble of the pen, I write my name with the words "Guitar God" and a quick tablature notation exercise.  The fans gaze at the signature as they leave whispering to their friends, "look, a hidden guitar lesson, ooh" my manager winks and gives a giggle. 

    My road crew carries out my many great guitars, my purple Gibson Destroyer, my lovely cream Fender, my black Ibanez beauty.  With a careful eye I make sure they don't damage the goods, these guitars are like my lovers.  

    As I enter the largest concert hall I've ever seen, I hear the loudest ambience of all time.  Through the curtains I peek upon an ocean of guitar lovers of all kind, from young inspired wannabes, to some damn lucky punk kids who could probably play a better six string ax, than seven of me.

    With the Bass guitar player and drummer starting with an introductory tribal riff, all ready for the show to kick in, I hear the announcer smoothly introduce me by name, as he includes a repertoire of all the awards, for guitar competitions and battle of the Gods, I have won.  It seems like I'm a king, on the way to talk to my countrymen.

    The introduction music slowly fades as the lights go black. I rush out with my favorite Flying V guitar, get in to place and BOOM, two great explosions on each side of me as the first song of a legendary concert begins.

    After the last song, I thank the audience and slap some skin with a few obvious future guitar Gods in the front row and I leave the stage.  As I head for the locker room I hear the crowd going crazy chanting,  my-name, my-name, my-name.  I turn around, come out on stage and the crowd screams so loud, I can't here my self think.  I look down on my guitar and play a huge chord that lasts for 3 minutes.  I quickly play their favorite tune, you know, the one they've been practicing at home!

    The song comes to an emotional end and I hand my favorite guitar to this young guy holding up a peace sign, lipping the words "I love you man".  He tears up as he holds his new, slightly beat up, guitar.

    I go back to my bus to rest for the next gig.  I fall asleep.

    I close the magazine, stop daydreaming and run to my room to start practicing like I never have before.  Reading every notation, every tablature I can.  I practice like this every day as I visualize my success as one of the greatest guitar players that ever lived. I know that what ever I believe in, will eventually turn in to a reality.  I believe. It is done.

I'M EXCITED !
