        Great to have a track you can play that’s just you a couple of pedals and your amp… but scary to have no backing track or support.

        Pleased with how this one turned out – nice reverb and a great tone that was a joy to play. I also tried to get some dynamics in there with how hard I was playing the strings.

        Enjoy

          It’s always scary without a backing track but you played this pretty cleanly wpb!

                Beautiful phrasing wpb. That guitar keeps sounding better and better.

                Root note patterns >>> CAGED shapes >>> TRIAD'S. Just put in the work and watch your guitar skills soar.

                  Super nice playing WPB! Dakota is sounding great as well. You must have practiced this one a bunch to get it that smooth.

                      Very nice indeed wpb. I play classical guitar all the time but I still stay clear of playing my electrics with no backing track. No easy to do that well and you sounded great with this.
