        Here’s my take on EP565. I am still discovering the Allman Brothers Band, and how I good they were. Brian, thanks for introducing me to Dickey Betts, not only with this lesson but also in other lessons.

        I always find it hard to find the right one. This was the best I can do.

        Best, Andre Hessels

          Nicely played Andre!

          Come from your comments on my post. I think we face the similar challenging on those 4 notes. I tried different ways of picking, hummer and pull-off. Still cannot keep up. Maybe I need 2 more weeks…

                Real nice… that Strat really squawks like a Strat should.

                    Nicely done, Andre. Some fast pickin’ in that one.

                      Really nice Andre! Great feel and tone on that Seafoam Green strat. I think you are starting 1 beat behind on the fast run at the end. ☺

                        You nailed it, Andre. I also tried this one, but yours sound far better. I enjoyed it.
