I recorded a song on my guitar. It is so bad it makes me sick to my stomach.

The act of creating something deserves to be celebrated, even if it doesn't meet your standards for quality! Good job!

Well it’s at least a start! Keep recording. :)

Jonathan Coulton started by writing one thing a week. Most of them were meh but there were some that were good. Turns out the important thing is perseverance.

Kudos to you on doing it. I’ve played guitar for twenty plus years and never had the guts to record myself.

once you have a good development for mechanical aspects you absolutely should record yourself and listen, so you can train your ears for the sound. your own ears will lie to you a lot, and the room/hall acoustics matter. the signal gear for amped instruments matters as well. if you want to play for people you have to train your ears so that you know what good sound, sounds like to most people.
