Stopping for a while

[Fabien]

Hi,

- I was wondering, did you ever stopped playing the guitar like for 1 week ? And you were bored of it ?

Or you have to forget it on a vacation to stop playing it ? (even I think you would go right away to the first guitar shop on sight ;D)

also, did you ever stop playing an instrument and then go back on it and feel that you had increased the quality of your playing ? (It happened to me 2 days ago, I had stop playing the guitar for 3 days because I didn't had time to practice, practice, practice )


Hoping for an answer !

Well last year iwent on holiday and parents insisted i didnt take guitar so two weeks later i ***ed badly, took me like six weeks to get to the standard i had been.

If i go more then a day without playing i have to work hard to get my technical playing back where it was.... a bit of a pain really,

Actually, Fabien, the same thing happens to me. If I go away for a few days and I come back, it's like I'm at a whole new level. I remember one time I came home from vacation and I sat down for about an hour and a half with my guitar, just blowing myself away! I could never play that fast or precise before then.

I guess when your away from your beloved instrument, you just have to let your fire out when you come back to it. ;D

when go without playing something i find hard for a few days, then come back to it, i find i have improved. your mind sort of comes back to it with a fresh view

yea every once and a while there'll be like few day gaps that i end up not being able to play and i start going into withdraws from not playing =-/ then when i pick yup my guitar again my soul has returned and i'm better than ever =P
