        Hey guys, so we have had a pretty big ice/snow storm where we are at and wanted to record this outside! 😀 Since being snowed in figured this would suit the scenery! 🙂

            In South Carolina, we have snow today. Haven’t seen this much snow since 2018. Only a couple of inches, but we hardly ever get snow here. Maybe, I’ll get the day off from work on Monday.

            Nice song choice for the season. Stay warm and don’t let those guitars dry out with this low humidity.

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

                          You’re crazy, Byron. I hope that was one take or your fingers might have failed. Nice playing. Love the electric sound you got from the acoustic.
