But when you're "practicing" rather than "playing" (as said by Theory in Practice's guitarist), it's best to play stuff like rush and the beatles. Playing too much metal can result in a sloppy way of playing. It did that to me.
+1 to who said rush; that was the catylist of improving my ability when i was new-ish. Whether or not you're actually at that level is questionable. I would also recommend doing various excersises to improve endurance, etc. Congratz on taking the initiative to learn scales already.
As for making your own songs, yes they will be bad. It's only because of your lack of experience with guitars/bass/drums and stuff. It will get much better, trust me (even if you only play bass, you will develop preference in sounds of all different kinds of instruments that are involved in the music you listen to/play). All i do when i make my own riffs/songs is i experiment. At your level it may just be a bunch of random notes, but when you learn to distinguish the different intervals in your head then it will become much easier.
Hope this helps
P.S. ......don't use a pick. What? Someone had to say it.
|
Yup, beatles are nice, Is it important not to use a pick while practicing!?
Why you'd say so!?

using your fingers allows for much more variety in the tone of your notes. i would suggest learning to play fingerstyle, especially if youre just starting out. best of luck with your playing. |

im having trouble with something
its whenever your doing a pattern where you skip strings...for example
---77--77--77-
-00--00--00---
I just cant seem t get my fingers to jump the string(s) like I need them to
anyone got a practice technique for this?
