That is such a lot of bollocks. :-)

Go grab a guitar, twiddle about with the machine heads so the strings are randomly tuned, and start hitting the strings with a book.

Absolutely no-one is stopping you from doing that (well, perhaps folk within earshot). Hell, there are guitarists, bass players, drummers and singers (whole bands!) who know pretty much nothing of music theory and still play stuff.

If you want to play, go ahead!



+1 on "Just grab a guitar".

Almost every rock/blues/metal guitarist worth naming started out by grabbing a guitar and fucking around on it until it started to make sense.
