Guitar wasn't that hard to learn. Though I've never met anyone that is a complete master at it. The whole 10,000hr rule you hear about practice. I've certainly passed that, and I still learn new things about the guitar. Whether it's a piece of theory, new technique, new way of getting a sound out of my amp. I was fortunate at 14 when I started to play. I was able to have two full years of playing before I started working. Obviously, while in highschool I played but once summer came around, all I did when I was 14 was practice the guitar.
My specific area of music I play is mainly guitar driven instrumental rock. I grew up on many kinds of music but that's what I gravitated too when I started to play and record. I also love flamenco guitar music, would love to do an album of flamenco music. Lately, I've really been getting into Blues music. Always appreciated blues and had massive respect for blues guitar players but never really played the blues myself. I'll throw in some blues licks here and there but nothing really blues driven. I really just love listening to some good blues guitar players(Gary Moore, Joe Bonamassa, SRV, B.B. King, are some of my favs). I will say, I prefer more blues rock(i.e. Gary Moore, SRV) as opposed to deep delta blues. I can only listen to that stuff for a little bit, it just stays too slow for my liking.
