Topic: Playing Level
I have a little challenge for you Chordies. Have you ever wondered at what level you play? Wouldn't it be nice for each of us who want to, to be able to go to a chart and see where your playing abilities lie? Well, I have been wondering lately if such a chart exists. A chart that shows different levels of skill on the guitar, or any instrument, for that matter. This might give each of us an idea who knows what about guitar. I am thinking along the same lines as a pain scale in the doctors office. 0-10, 0 being no pain or don't know a guitar from a piano and 10 being extremely painful or Plays like Stevie Ray Vaughan on steroids. If one already exists, please clue me in. If not, then maybe as group we can come up with a standard chart that explains briefly each level of guitar from 0-10. I am sure we would appreciate this ability and so would the rest of the music world, for that matter. Maybe we could call it the Chordie Scale. I guess I could possibly come up with a draft, but I really don't know how to clearly define each level. This is where you come in. Maybe you can start throwing out some ideas for the first couple of levels and we could go from there. If one doesn't already exist and we come up with a clearly defined chart, I am sure it would spread throughout the music community. Or am I just way behind the power curve on this one?
I have finally found happiness in my life. Guitars, singing, beer and camping. And they all intertwine wonderfully.
