How he can does this? Just practicing ?

I wonder if practice and study music is all you need to develop these kind of skills or may the God's hand playing an important role.

I'm sure that's part of it, but let's see how good you are when you have been playing something like.... 40 years!

so the years you have been playing make a difference? lets take an example. I love iron maiden, but if your statment is true then Steve Harris has not make progress, same applies for many bass players.

some people just "speak" the music language.

That really depends. I'm sure there is a pretty big curve between what Steve Harris is capable of doing and what he does on an Iron Maiden song. Harris' gallop is part of Maiden's signature. He be crazy to start throwing in new techniques, but that doesn't mean he hasn't learned any!

I, on the other hand, have been playing for close to 20 years and haven't shown much inprovement since I was 19!

Being a very devout Christian, I am sure that Abraham Laboriel would be very quick to credit God, but it is also true that he has an extensive music education including a Berklee degree. Mr. Laboriel has put in the time needed to be a master of his craft.
