How much do you practice each day?

Three or four hours of serious jazz studying.

Concentrated practice 1 - 1.5 hours. Depending on work, wife's work and the baby. Sometime 20-30 minutes of noodling in my office on my coffee break. Never play on Fridays.

I read a lot about music in my spare time, but I won't count that.

I practiced a lot yesterday, played songs over and over, with of course practicing scales and chords. Now that I'm going to college I'll have even more time to play (I hope).

Hour a day, sometimes a lot more. sometimes less.

Generally 1.5 to 2 hours... Sometimes more and rarely less.

I try to give both electric and acoustic equal time unless I am working on something specific to one or the other.

Well due to college and working almost full time, there are some days when I do not even touch a guitar (those days suck!). However, four days a week I am able to practice guitar. I usually play around 1-1.5 hours. However, that number is not set in stone. Some days I will lock myself in my room and play 6 hours straight.

Couple of hours work in the AM (I work from home) then guitar...a bite to eat, see if there's anything needs doing, back to guitar......cook tea, 1/2 hour's work (if I'm in the mood), then while the Mrs is watching the soaps, back to the guitar.....altogether, probably 4/5 hours a day, not including time spent on GN......

Someone once called Arnold Palmer (I think) the luckiest golfer they'd ever seen.....his reply was along the lines of "Funny that, cos the harder I practise the luckier I get......." I know luck doesn't really enter into the musical equation, but the principle's the same..........

Not enough.
:wink:

Like Audioslaveaddict, I'm going to college full time and working part time, so there are those days (like today and probably a couple more days this week) where I get very little or no time on the guitar (depressing, no?). During the summer and days when I have nothing to do (ie, studying, work) about 3 hours. If I could get 3 hours EVERY day I imagine I'd be a lot better than I am now. :? Guess I'll have to wait until I graduate and get a real job to have time to slack off and play guitar. 8)

I try for at least 1 hour a day, sometimes a hell of a lot more and sometimes a hell of a lot less.

on a typical day when im not cruising the town or with my girlfrind..in the summer i usually spend...about 6-7 hours a day with my guitar...usually i play off and on throughout the afternoon..then at about 8:30 or 9:00 ill play untill 3 or 4 in the morning...for some reason i play better at night..when nooes around and whatnot and i just act like im hendrix and play!!!

20 min. to an hour a day on days I work
1 to 2 hours on days I'm off of work
Thats structured practice: I play guitar more than that in a day

hmmmm well i just started a job recently soo my practice times really starting to suffer....usually though i have a habit of sitting around....and then out of nowhere i get the sudden urge to play so i run up to my room and jam for as long as a few hours sometimes....im not gonna say how much i play daily cause some days i honestly dont even pick up my guitar....but weekly i say i get in aobut a good 5-10 hours.....

hmmm that gives me and idea....maybe my boss will letme bring a guitar to work and let it stay there.....so i can practice at work too....hahaha mmmaaaaayyybbeee......if im lucky...lol

it varies on my mood
