How an Article Written 20 Years Ago Forever Changed my Guitar Playing

…And I Want You Have it

So there I was, boxes everywhere from the move.

My wife (then girlfriend) is rolling her eyes at the amount of books and magazines I collected over the years.

More boxes filled with books than I care to admit.

As I’m arranging the bookshelf, I’d later deem: The Library, a magazine caught my eye.

An old mag from over 20 years ago. It had Steve Vai on the cover.
(One of my all-time heroes)

He pulled the veil on his practice routine. Every detail, all there. It felt like finding a treasure map.

You see back around this time, I was aching to be a better guitar player.

But I let myself think that working two jobs – prevented me from making the time to practice.

Back then it was one thing, to strum a couple of chords with my friends around the fire. I didn’t have the balls to get up on stage and perform.

Yet I knew it was in me to do it – I needed to do it.

So what did I do? I took a leap of faith.

I followed it. Every exercise, every scale.

And more importantly… I started tracking what I practiced.

The difference? Huge.

My playing? Smooth as silk.

My solos? They got real deep.

And least year… my band played over 40 gigs.

My guitar is a part of me now. And man, that feeling is something else.

I want you to feel it too.

No websites, no hassle.

Just a PDF of that life-changing advice, straight to your inbox.

If your guitar’s gathering dust, or if every strum feels like a battle, this is for you.
