    Same here… I’ve been playing for 30 years but I’m terrible. I usually play repeated muted notes because I like how they sound. A lot of delay to hide my mistakes and bad timing. When I’m feeling adventurous I do a simple pentatonic solo.

      Your probly better than you think. (; I know I’m SUPER hard on myself. To the point where I either just put the guitar down that day, or just let it all go(and that’s when the magic really happens ime, but also the hardest part about playing I think)

      Delay is very useful for keeping time, like a metronome. I find if I’m off, it’s almost worse with the delay cause the delay shifts too so your mistake is dragged out even further. I bet your timing is actually pretty good.
