This reminds me of how I became a better guitar player by learning piano. I had been playing guitar (classical & metal mostly) for about 15 years before learning piano. Upon learning some basic piano, I found the guitar fretboard came alive in entirely new ways. I believe this to be a result of the piano keyboard having a visually clear and uniform organization of notes, enabling me to "see" how music theory operated in a more visceral way.
