nice tones, and you have a nice touch. i really like the sound of that tele
good bluesy feel.
there is a really cool note at 2:58
only minor thing you might want to watch is playing the major 3rd over the minor changes. only happened a few times in your clip tho

Nice playing, sounds like you use your fingers some...

achase4u · June 17th, 2008, 04:26 PM

Thank you! Yes I do use the fingers as well - I really like using a hybrid style quite a bit actually - kind of an EJ inspired thing. I dig how he plays chords sometimes all notes at once like a piano since he uses his fingers...

Decided to do another - different pups this time ;-)
