Actually, the amount of years playing is insignificant. People do compose for instruments that they have never played in their lives!! Knowing about the instrument, its ranges and capabilities certainly helps, but being able to play it isn't. ---- Ive been playing for 6 years, and i still cant write a good song. I think songwriting talent is something that some people are naturally better at. Its a creative thing, whereas playing guitar is more technical. It certainly helps to learn the musical basics, such as chords, scales, structure, etc. which is something that could be learnt in months.
