  Title : my ear  
         
  QUESTION:  
 
Please answer this question! I need some help.

You said that using tabs is like cheating on a test, you don't truly learn what you are playing. I believe this is very true because I just started playing by ear and I realize how bad my ear is. I feel that I’m starting over on my guitar which is frustrating since I’m all ready 19. I struggle to pick up the easiest stuff at quarter speed. What should I do? Will my ear improve or is it always going to be this bad? Will my ear turn into a great ear if I continue to play by ear?
 
     
  MARTY'S ANSWER:  
 
Yes. Keep at it for a long time.
