        This is another great lesson from Brian.

        On this one i experimented quite a bit with playing descending trials and harmonized thirds down the neck from high to low. It was a lot of fun to so and I have been able to adapt this technique to quite a few tracks now 😄.

          Yeah, the cascading effect down the fretboard sounds cool Geoff. Very well executed. And … very impressed with those lightning single line runs throughout. Well played. All the best! 😎🎸😎

            Superbly performed Geoff. Really well done.

              Very cool Geoff
              You look/sound like one of those 70’s studio recording artists known as the “Wrecking Crew” – folks like Glenn Campbell and others. Love the sound you are getting and descending thirds and triads. Keep up the great work. This is very melodic, musical and smooth. Well done.

                Excellent playing Geoff. You got the groove going really well on this one.

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

                  Wow, that’s played and improvised excellently, and the sound goes perfectly with it. Great performance.
