Its both. You need the regular practice to get and keep the technical skill, but it takes time for your playing to become you. It really is the creativity, feel and personality the individual makes come through the instrument that makes a great performance, not technical skill. I'll take a sloppy solo with heart any day over a technically perfect one with no soul.

Very true and I agree. I'll take sloppy with lots of emotion over technically perfect any day.
