How often do you practice? as a band or as an individual ?
Just realised we had a practice as a band in April or May, so hoping to get another this year(tomorrow night hopefully).
But thinking about it I just pulled my tele out to get some Christmas songs up together, and thought that's been inits case since last gig !
Do you guys have a practice regime on guitar or just when you play with band ?

That aside I just grab a guitar when in the house and learn what's needed re broadening set lists, and casual sofa noodling.

Same here really, I should practice a lot more. Just a bit lazy.
i play between 1 and 4 hours a day when I'm in the country. 4 hours in the weekend obviously. but it's not normally very focussed practice though in the weekend I do push it on a bit, learn a new Al di Meola lick or something.

Somewhere around '89-'93, I was practising minimum 5hrs a day, 5 days a week, and at various times 3 x4hr rehearsals per week.
These days, not so much.
Hear hear Sir.

When I was taking lessons it was 2-3 hrs a night, without fail.
These days, less, although I play more when I don't feel like shit.

In my case not much and with diminishing returns as you go down the list. Sometimes its nice just to pick up the guitar and go off into being fake BB King or whatever and enjoy the moment - even if anyone listening wouldn't -although it doesn't result in any kind of learning or practice for anything else (indeed, it maybe 20 minutes spent reinforcing bad habits).

Vibrato is very underrated, I've heard otherwise excellent guitarists with serious chops let themselves down with weird vibrato.
