        Hi, another video, what do you think of the background?

          Very well-done, Pavel. Great tone, technique and confidence.

            Great style Pavel! George Benson meets Robert Cray!! Smooth and melodic. I would love to see your fretboard more in your vids if possible to see how you attack your awesome stuff! Bob

                Pavel you are a smooth cat.
                Nice jazzy feel.

                  Hi Pavel, you are one classy player is all I can say. Funny that you would ask what we think about the background when the listening is all on you 🙂 That said, I love the background too, just love that funky feel and rhythm to that.

                    Hi Pavel,

                    What a fantastic performance you really have a handle on the fretboard.

                    I agree with Bob – I would have loved to have seen more of what your fingers are up to on this.

                    Apart from that this was 10s all round.

                      Hi Pavel,

                      That was soooo smooth, and sooo lovely to listen to.. I am chilled now for the rest of the day! As I listened, I thought of George Benson: and I notice that Bob picked up on that too…

                      To echo the others’ comments, would love to see more of your fret board, just to see how you play this… and I wish it was longer, as I would love to hear more of your wonderful playing!

                      Thanks for posting it! 😎🎸

                            More More please. That was fabulous and I loved everything about it. Please entertain us with more. I think we could all learn something from your playing.

                              Top playing Pavel, very enjoyable. Yes, just lower the camera so we can see your whole guitar. All the best! 🥸🎸🥸
