Hello new guy here.I say it’s whatever works for you.I’ve been playing for 30+ yrs.&had about 6mos. lessons{counting time,reading&theory all beginner level}that was half the lesson then it was time to learn riffs&current popular songs.I think,for me Ipick up more the old fashioned way,listen&play,then repeat.I got pretty fast w/my ear&usually learned songs faster than readers or tab readers.By listening I think yiu can pick up more feeling&style,Just my opinion.
THANX MUCH 😉 bloozplyr57
