          Nice playing Randy. Excellent touch with a really cool crunch on the tone.

            That was great, Randy. You played it perfectly and seemed to add your own flavor in there as well. One of my favorite lessons for sure. That Les Paul sounds awesome… Gibson or Epiphone?

                    Really nice Randy! If I remember, you have an Epiphone also. Anything about the Gibson that makes it stand out?

                        Hi James, indeed i use to have an epi les paul custom pro, great guitar but compared to this, this is a huge step forward in feel/sound and playability. Its awesome and inspires me to practice more and more!

                        Good one, Randy. That lesson is on my permanent repertoire, just because it forced me to knuckle down and learn to play those fast runs properly. Plus it sounds awesome.

                          Great solo there man, can hear the influences of Gary Moore and others in your playing, shame you stopped to soon though.

                              Blown away!!! Your playing was perfect. Sound and tone just made me want to listen to it again and again. The second verse showed how talented you are. Loved it!!

                                          Still my favorite lesson at AM. You played it very well. The fast runs are quite challenging and you mastered them. Nicely done.
