        So this ended up growing arms and legs and I also didn’t have enough time to practice

        In the end had to give up on Picture in Picture because TIME

        I’ve added the backing track I created if anyone wants to give this type of lead a go
        You’ll guess the style instantly it needed more though

        enjoy ish

          Great rendition Greg. You make that SG really growl. Love those Chuck Berry licks.

            I like the purposeful and repeated motif you dished out in this. Nice driving riffs.

            The technical challenge of two or more video’s combined and displayed together is definitely something that many had trouble with.

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

              The rock music was top-notch, and the sound of your guitar was simply sensational. Thank you very much.

                I loved this! Great driving rhythm with some classy licks and riffs.
                I like the growly tone you’ve dialed it.
                Very Keith sounding.

                More Blues!

                  You had me hooked right from the start with that driving groove, Greg. And the rocking riffs that followed really won me over. Great rocking rendition. The only thing is, the ending was a bit too abrupt.

                  Take the chance to meet your AM friends on Zoom
                  The next Meetup will be May/June

                  There will be a detailed announcement here in the forum
                  I look forward to meet you.

                        Cool rock groove , with some classy blues licks .
                        The repeating bending one is a great idea and a standout motif .
                        Love the gritty tone you’ve dialled in .
                        Well played.

                          Great playing and awesome backtrack, love when the bass comes in, solidifies the whole thing.
                          Old Snake can rock it out.
                          Love the growling SG.

                              That was a nice hard rocking performance Greg. Loved those slow vibrato bends.

                                    Where’s the school cap, blazer and shorts, Greg?! Loved that driving rhythm and the warm fuzz of your SG.

                                      That rocked and rolled Greg. It’s a keeper. Awesome driving rhythm and the lead over it.
