What is it like being a musician? It's an incredibly frustrating, constant struggle with insecurity and fear of inadequacy. It's being under appreciated and under paid. It's the hours of study and practice honing your skills to become the artist you know you will never be and knowing people have no understanding of what it takes to make it appear "natural". It's people talking about their friend or cousin who is an amazing musician and never had a single lesson...who doesn't even practice! It's knowing people feel entitled to what you do...not understanding that they are receiving a gift. It's sore sore fingers. It's the fight to book gigs and the frustration of last-minute cancelations. It's loading up and loading out and everything you don't see. But it's also that one moment when everything clicks...when you are lost in the music and everyone is sharing that vibe. It's the ultimate escape from everything that is wrong in the world

I’m thinking of attempting a truss rod adjustment on my accoustic. The strings seem too high on the fretboard. Looking for tips and insight in what I need to look for or be careful of. I’ve googled the info but wanted some community feedback.

i will be playing this at the show tomorrow night, but on a 6 string Alvarez jumbo. had to make a few adjustments.. will be playing in stereo still... have a great sound guy who always takes care of me and gives me stereo in the monitors too ... pan them 10 o clock and 2 o clock. Spider capo and a myriad of pedals

The phrase that got the most love in Round 1 was: “I said I played guitar, I didn’t say I played well.” So… we went ahead and had a design made for it 👀🔥 Before we move forward with production, I want REAL feedback from the community: ✅ Is this something you would actually buy and wear proudly? ✅ What do you think of the overall design? ✅ Should we change the font style or colors? ✅ What do you think about the guitar choice? For the guitar, we went with a Stevie Ray Vaughan / Hendrix-style Fender Strat vibe 🎸 Don’t hold back either...honest feedback helps us make these designs WAY better before launch 🙌

many moons ago, a friend of mine in Nashville was house sitting for another friend who had an immense guitar collection. I got to play one of Stevie Rays guitars. i couldnt really play it though, because of the heavy gauge strings that he used
