if you are still in school, there is time to juggle both and still do well. it’s not a question of sacrificing one over the other…

Joe Satriani, Mark Knopfler, Stanley Jordan. They are all innovative geniuses on guitar.

As a musician the more self practice you do by yourself the better you will get and if you have trouble with a part play that part over and over until you can play it without messing up

Most of the best guitar players in the world are self-taught. They didn’t take lessons or didn’t take many. Stevie Ray Vaughn, Steve Vai, Eric Clapton, etc. etc are all examples of this. The fastest way to get good is practice, practice, practice.. I would also learn how to ready tabulature. This is a method where they tell you where to put your fingers on what strings and what frets. It really is easy to learn. Also, there is this guitar out there that you can buy and it comes with software. The guitar has little red round lights on the fret board that light up telling you were to put your fingers. It really is easy. My friends kid has a guitar like that and boy did he learn how to play fast. With the software it comes you can get songs to practice with. They aren’t lame songs either. Go to Music 1-2-3. com. And they have something like this. Check it out. Otherwise learn tabulature and that will make it easier. Good Luck and Rock On.

You should set up a routine of practice that rotates its focus – for example, spend one day’s practice working on right-hand articulation, the next day on chords and scales, the next on left-hand dexterity, the next on learning songs & playing them end-to-end, the next on improvising within a given structure (say, metal or blues), the next on special techniques (tapping, bends, sweep-picking, etc.), the next on writing songs or chord progressions that could become songs, and so on; and whenever possible, play with your band and anybody else you can in between practice sessions. If you stick to this sort of routine, your practice will be well-rounded, you won’t let your concentration on particular weaknesses lull you into ignoring your strengths, and you’ll end up much more well-rounded as a player and disciplined as a person.

“The other day I walked up to a man on the street and asked him, ‘Excuse me, what’s the quickest way to Carnegie Hall?’ He replied, ‘Practice, practice, practice!’”
Haha, I know, I know, it’s a lame joke, but it’s the truth. Just play as much as you can. You want to improve quickly? Play 3 hours a day. Or 2 hours a day, or 10 minutes, whatever you can spare, just practice AS MUCH AS YOU CAN. Practice what you learned at school. Imitate songs on the radio. Pick up a chord chart and play it chord by chord. Study scales. Whatever. Just make sure that you play EVERY DAY. A music teacher once told me, “If a musician misses one day of practice, he can tell. If a musician misses two days of practice, EVERYONE can tell.”
Hope I could help!

The Guitar? Unless you want to go Prog-rock, then a mandolin course would help.
