As a practicing guitarist, I am of the firm belief that no one else can make you a better
player. It is up to each of us as individuals to stand out among others. There is no
method, gimmick, book or video which has the ability to make you play better or worse.
Being a quality player means continually practicing and playing with the intent of
improving, never giving up and often sacrificing much in the process.
