Journal: Playing guitar after one month

Current mood: jubilant

As you know my previous blog, i have been guitar-less for about a month. I finally got my guitars back, and i must say it was the strangest feeling EVER. It just felt so different, the strings seemed so thin and the neck seemed so weird and it was a completely different experience. I was expecting about one week of 'getting re-familiarized' but insanely, after one month of not playing, i was even BETTER than ever before. My sweeps were perfectly clean, my speed was at an all time high, i was pulling off amazing solos, shocking isnt it? Its really very ironic, i was expecting to suck ass after that month, but it actually improved my technique in the craziest technique of ways. Although being better didnt help my poor fingers, needless to say it hurt a lot for the first few days after getting it back.

I.. kinda feel ya there. When I stop playing for a while, I feel really bad, but when I come back to it, I find that I've improved. Your muscle memory just has time to reset after all the practicing you've smacked it with over the days/weeks/years. Sometimes the greatest practicing tool is not practicing at all :)


It's really lonely, though :(
