Last week I got this question in my inbox:

“When I practice the pentatonic scale it sounds like I am picking, yet when I hear others play it, it sounds like they are strumming... How can I change this? In other words, how can I make what I am doing SMOOTHER?”

This reminds me of my student Dave. He played guitar but with no dynamics, no control. Everything he played was with 100% of energy. Super intense.

Think of playing guitar as having a conversation with someone. You’re not always 100% yelling at someone’s face, super intensive and no room for the other person to talk. If you are, you probably need to work on your people skills.

The same goes for guitar playing. You gotta have self-control, choose your words, notes, and licks, techniques. You have to become smooth. And you have to be intentional about these things when you’re playing guitar.

So, here are a few things you can work on to have the self-control as a guitar player.
