I’m an amateur singer-songwriter. I play guitar well enough to compose basic chord arrangements and better-than-average-amateurs (IMO) lyrics. I want to become a better guitar player but have no idea how to go about structuring my practice to do so. Every time I try to learn a scale I drift off after about 10 minutes when I hear something I like and start writing a song around it. Which is great for creativity but does nothing to further my playing ability at the rate I would like. I’m also lacking a foundation in music theory, as when I start reading anything about I just drift off period. What advice would you give to someone like me?
