          Beautifully played, Lights. Clean and clear and tight with the track.

              Played to perfection, Lights! That’s my favorite of your submissions so far. Great job on the recording, also. The jamtrack and guitar were just at the right volume.

                Hi Lights
                Great licks and melody lead to your arrangement! I would agree, the tone and volume settings with back track were perfect!👍

                  Sounds good Lights! Your acoustic tone is light and melodic on top of that track. Nice R&B feel.

                        Beautifully played, Meelis. I totally forgot myself while listening; it was just beautiful buddy. Accentuated, clean tones and of course always in timing. I enjoyed it!!!

                        Play guitar just like you live; don't get bogged down in theory, it's just a tool without feeling.

                              Great choice of lesson Lights, this is a classic and it sounded fantastic on your acoustic. You’re right with the band and in the groove. Snap! Snap! All the best! 🥸🎸🥸

                                    I’m always impressed by your musicality, and I can tell you are comfortably expressing a piece when you toss in those little trills as you play along. Those are marks of excellence I admire.

                                        Very soulful with great timing Lights. Sounded great as an up-plugged version.

                                          Excellent rendition Lights! I’ll go and see this inspiring EP

                                          If I wasn't making mistakes I wouldn't be the kind of player I want to be. Perfection is dangerous.

                                                  Love hearing your rendition of this song on the acoustic Lights. You’re a master at creating just the right tone and feel on an acoustic … and really breath your style into this song. Thanks!
