i think good way is to sit down with a pen and paper and see what you want out of the guitar ....write your goals down ...short term like for instance learn D dorian in all positions ...or right hand picking improvement ...ect...so will end up with a list...
see whats the most important things for you at the time and pick maybe 4..decide how long you can practice everyday and split that time into 4 ...so maybe 2 hours at 30 mins each...
practice thesed everynight...if for some reason you only have 1 hour for a night ..divide into 4 again so you will have 15 mins each...
you will find some things might happen quicker than others so iff you reach a target with that ...pick another topic from the list and carry on the same way...after a while you will get through everything....time for another list..ect..ect
also its a good idea to start using the things you learn as soon as possible either with a band or backing tracks ...so you are actually using the material...
If I'm learning a set, I spend as much time as I can mentally running through playing it - over and above any practice with a guitar actually in my hands. It's amazing how much this helps.
the whole point of that is to be well drilled..
in the event of some agro on stage I don't really want to be working things out.. so you just follow the drill.. auto-pilot mode I guess.. I can switch to my backup rig in the same time it takes to change guitar
and.. I've actually had to switch rigs on stage before [in Naples I think] when a 2120 failed.. I had the backup rig yes.. but I wasn't really prepped to cut-over.. ok so it's not rocket science.. but it's not a nice time to be thinking on your feet, "do this and that and then that..."
it was this [unpleasent] experience that made me decide to create a drill for it that is quick, easy and efficient.. no fumbling around.. no nasty noises coming through my rig.. looks and feels more pro too, which is good for the confidense in such a situation....
@Clarky Were you in the Scouts? Be prepared and all that....
Good advice, as always Sir. Especially the back-up rig
