Learn Faster: Songs or Scales?

Learning songs teaches more than learning scales: true or false?

🎸 Some guitarists learn best by playing songs; others swear scales are the real foundation.

Which one do you believe leads to faster growth: learning music you love, or building the technical framework first?

Let’s settle this, GuitarGym fam!

I would say triad arpeggios, as these can be helpful for both rhythm and lead playing, as well as providing a foundation for scale-based work later on.

Better Tone: Pick Angle or Dynamics?

Tone improvement trick: Pick angle control or picking dynamics?

Both can completely change your sound, but which one has made the bigger difference for you?

Let’s hear your tone secrets, GuitarGym fam! ⚡

You were funny. I laughed. I was just trying to be funny too. Maybe someday we'll be really good guitar players so I can leave the humor to professionals. As to guitar playing, I got way more issues than pick angle!
