        Hello fellow AMrs. I have had to pull back on challenge posts since June because of other life priorities. However, I saw that its Jola’s 100th submission so I decided to submit for this month. Congrats Jola! You are an inspiration and your progress over the years is remarkable.

        This is a little improv in D based on what I learned from Brian’s lesson on EP 679.

        Thanks for watching. Pap

          EP679? That must be a lesson from the future 🙂 I think you meant to say EP629, but now I’m going to be looking out for that EP679 in the future.

          That’s a nice improve Pappy. Which model PRS is that?

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

              Busted…and there is no option to edit it. I hope EP 679 is a lesson in D:) My PRS is SE Custom 24.

                  Very nice Pap.
                  Well done.
                  Is that the 24th frets PRS?

                        Very relaxed bluesy improvisation! Slow Blues belong to my favorites styles.
                        Glad you are back!

                        More Blues!

                            Very nicely played Pap. I have a PRS CE24 and love it.

                              Wow, Pap, this sounds great! You’re taking your time and leaving plenty of space between notes. This thing is drenched in blues. Sounds like your girlfriend just stole all your money and your house burned down.
                              Excellent improv!!
                              Glad you made it to the Challenge!

                                Nicely done PAP. This is one of your first true blues solos. Your licks are soulful and gritty. Your phrasing was spot on-melodic and engaging. Love the PRS as well. Its fun watching your progress.

                                  Hey Pap, good to see you submitting. Some nice played back playing on this track. A late night blues. Very cool.
