It’s a regular thing; it’s something every guitar player must do. To be good in playing the guitar – regardless of whether you are taking beginner guitar lessons or advanced, you should get familiar with every technique, every fret and note on your guitar and there’s nothing better in getting yourself familiar with these things than practice. It’s something that you should do, even with other stuff that you do, practice does makes things perfect. Even legendary guitar players still practice until now. Steve Vai practices around 10 hours per day. You see how dedication to practice is important? You won’t rise up a level if you don’t practice even if you have new stuff to learn, of course, the obvious action is to practice it. But if you would only practice it once or twice, that won’t do you any good, in fact, the only thing that could make you progress up to higher levels is practice, and that is a fact my friend. If you want things to be simple, put it this way, No Pain, No Gain. No Practice, No Progress. That is why the only thing that I could advise to all aspiring guitar players all over the world is to practice, practice like you are a complete noob. Even if you are already good, practice still. This is the only way to become great.
