Well i've been playing for around 11 months now, and I've stumbled upon a problem. I just can't learn anything new.
I'm stuck in the intermediate zone, whatever i try to learn is too easy, or way too hard.
I do pretty good with chords, making them sound good in sucession, usually mellow jazz stuff, but sounds good.
I do horrible with single notes, if they're withen chords I do okay, but solos are a mess for me, my mind knows what to do, but my fingers and picking hand wont do what the brain tells them to.
I also suck with tabs, they don't tell me the rhythm and i just don't do good reading them.
I don't know music theory, or how to read music.
Also, there Is NOOOO good free lessons anywhere, except for rockongoodpeople on youtube, but they hardly update lessons.
tl;dr: i've hit guitars version of writers block and need tips for getting back on my feet
