Nicely played Glen, you set the groove going and impressively didn’t waver from the outset. I enjoyed the tone from your Wide Sky, a make I’m not familiar with, but sounded just right for that style of solo blues.

Beautifully played Glen and you look really comfortable with that guitar.
Go slow and practice correct technique, and your abilities will dramatically improve.

You were in the pocket Glen. I liked the way you ended it getting muted and quiet.

Hey Denise!! Thanks for taking a peek. Yeah, I noticed that Brian has one of the Wide Sky electric guitars ( model PL125) Here’s a piece of Wide Sky trivia for you. The guitar in my video is #30 of 39 he ever made of that particular acoustic model. Patch Rubin (Wide Sky luthier/owner) made one of his electrics for Gary Clark Jr. around the same time he made mine (2018). Clark played it at one of Clapton’s Crossroads Festivals and apparently many, many people wanted to know more about this cool guitar. The demand became so great that Patch decided to discontinue the acoustic model in my video to focus solely on his electric guitars, namely the model that Brian owns. As of last year, Patch has a 1 1/2 year backlog to get one. So happy for Patch. He is the nicest guy. Cheers and happy playing, Denise

I really enjoyed that Glen. Yeah, great acoustic standalone playing, tight rhythmic work and fills but still had the bluesy feel for sure. Beautiful guitar with a really cool sound. Thanks for sharing. All the best! 😎🎸😎

Hey Larry! Thanks for watching. The Wide Sky PL1 is based on a 1930 Gibson L1. It’s essentially the guitar that Robert Johnson is holding in the famous photo with his suit and tilted hat. Not sure if it’s considered a parlor guitar, but the soundboard footprint is definitely in that single O/OO size. And it’s got a deep body (4 1/4″) like the “NIck Lucas era” Gibsons. I love it!!

Oh man this is my kind of guitar playing. Sounds dead accurate and smooth as silk. Love the clarity and simplicity with which you cover this-with soul and tone! Great picking my friend.John
