I know everything about my guitar, where every notes is, scales, chords, all self taught. I've been in my room for years now writing and minipulating this instrument to the exact sounds i want. how can i make money off my music bymyself til i can get pro gear. I've been out of work for a month and with nothing i have nothing to lose i only have my love of my life, my guitar. I play it all free time i have and am on my 5th year. im only 19 but i want to play music for a living and nothing else. i cant sit in my rom and play anymore, ive spent 2-8 hours each day on one instrument and im about to play on the streets or somthing, id like any better suggestions. The reason for this is you can't become the best if it doesn't consume your life, and that's what i'm going for. Their's no such thing as the best want to get as close as i can. I want to grow musically and just be around music
