If you dust off your guitar and spend the day learning all the guitar solos from Bohemian Rhapsody…then at the end of the day that is exactly what you’ll be able to play.
On the other hand if you dust off your guitar and spend the day learning a bunch of chords…then at the end of the day you’ll be able to play pretty much any popular song from the last sixty years.
Two different approaches. Two great results. Both offering an answer to, ‘what is the guitar for?’
Both are right. But the paths will lead to different places.
