          Thats a nice jam session Mike. Some nice use of space and, I have to say, I liked that Strat tone too 😎

              Sounding great on the Strat Mike! Sweet minor blues is one of my favorite things.

                    Some interesting phrases there Mike.

                    You play really rather well and with just the right amount of quack in your tone.

                    Rock on 🤘

                      Well played, Mike. Sultry, bluesy, soulful. Your fretboard skill is always impressive.

                          Well rounded with many techniques being used.

                          The melody of the notes is what expresses the art of music . 🙂 6stringerPete

                          It really is all about ”melody”. The melody comes from a language from our heart. Our heart is the muscle in music harmony. The melody is the sweetness that it pumps into our musical thoughts on the fretboard. 🙂 6 stringer Pete
