Turning up the volume a whole lot can help a mediocre guitar player sound somewhat competent. This does not apply to drums. (source: crappy drummer me)

- doytch 3y agoReally? I feel the opposite. All the poor string muting really shines through :( (source: crappy guitarist me)
- dualboot 3y agoI think this says more about the general state of guitar playing than anything else.
- analog31 3y agoThe converse is also true, and applies to both guitar and drums. Being able to play quietly, with intensity and energy, is one of the hallmarks of a better player. "Good player but plays too loud" is a euphemism for "bad player." Preserving your hearing is a factor. Source: Bassist. ;-)
- dylan604 3y agoI’ve found the opposite. Turning down the volume helps tremendously. The further from 11 you get, the better a bad player sounds.
