When can one officially call themselves a guitar player?

I always tell people that if you can consistently play a fully barred B or F, you're there.
 
If you play more then one chord in succession and a girl thinks it's cool, then I won't argue with it.
 
When SOMEONE ELSE says you're a guitar player. If you say it yourself, you're a wanna be.
 
If you've ever gotten laid as a direct result of your playing, you're there.

Like I said............. :D
 
If you have ever watched Stevie Ray Vaughn or Eric Clapton play and said to yourself, "I could do that." ...then you might be a guitar player.

If you said to yourself, "I could do that.........better!" ...then you might be a keyboard player.
 
If your idea of fun is wanking on Jackson through a Marshall in GC on a Saturday afternoon trying to play "Smells Like Teen Spirit", you might be a guitar player.
 
If your parents, neighbors or dog have eer yelled at you to "turn that nonsence down," you might be a guitar player.
 
If your girlfriend is a stripper, you're a guitar player.
 
When someones says 'play something we all know'

Amen!

That's the shit that resulted in me kicking my stupid keyboarders ass to the curb. He still argues that he can do anything a guitar player can. What a joke.

Gosh, by all the criteria people have posted, I'm a guitar player... except for the "Teen Spirit" thing.

My answer was gonna be "I don't know, 'cause I've been doing it for 40 years and I still don't call myself a guitar player."
 
If you're complaining about how you can't play because your knee/scalp/shoelaces hurt, you might be a drummer
 
If you think you can play it better, but can't play a note, you might be a singer.

IMHO



When playing guitar brings the food on yer table.


...which means I'll never be more than an amateur.. :rolleyes:


..can't go telling everyone you're a rocket scientist if you go around cleaning rooms for a living?...
