Lol, you left the sync snap in at the end. 🙂 Great job with that speed lick, I’m still working on that to clean it up. But you did a fine job with it.

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

Hi Lights, good to see and hear you again. Very nice playing here, your finger-picking sounds great. I got to try that myself. It’s a useful skill to have on electric guitar, too.

[Alan L]

Fantastic!

[Guido]

Excellent finger picked rendition Lights, played very well with expressiveness and a perfect timing! Great job!

Great job on acoustic, Lights. I always find acoustic so much harder than electric and the fact you can do this without a pick astounds me.

Hi, Lights, the melody sounds very familiar to me somehow. I also considered playing it fingerstyle, but then decided to use a pick. You show here that it also sounds very good fingerstyle, if you know how to do it. And you know how to do it, that’s for sure.

Take the chance to meet your AM friends on Zoom
The next Meetup will be on February 28, 2026

I look forward to meet you.

Nailed another one, Lights! Sounds great. Your notes are crystal clear, and your finger picking technique always amazes me.

Happy New Year,

This was the most soulful of the Quist tracks AMers were choosing and you brought your A-game to render it. Beautiful stuff played with feeling and style. Those arpeggios are what give it so much grace, and, of course, the final snap leaves your signature on this version.

[Martin W]

That’s such a nice take on the track , and you played it finger style, nailing those fast runs ……impressive stuff .

Marvellous acoustic version of this soulful Brian classic. Those fast little finger picked runs rang out so precise and clear. Really impressive 👍

[Michael L]

Hi Lights, great rendition on this lesson. There are some quick runs that you played really well, and some of those harmonies are great for this. Your acoustic sounds great over the track.

[JoLa]

I remember that one, Meelis! Glad to hear it again, sounds truly beautiful on your acoustic!
