        Hello friends I went back and changed the key of this particular song (jump with you baby) from G to E,made a simple loop and improvised some of my own stuff,was fun and interesting to get the sound,feel and licks in a different key,definitely something I might try on other songs,plus it avoids copyright issues,hope yall enjoy friends!

          Sounded cool Wayne, you’re navigating the fretboard with ease. Interesting re: changing the key to avoid copyright, I’ll keep that in mind. All the best! 😎🎸😎

                  Oooh, got the black and white theme going on. Great tone, and driving rhythm.

                  Go slow and practice correct technique, and your abilities will dramatically improve.

                    Good one, Wayne. I really liked the walk down with those triplets at about 18 seconds into it.
