Yep, as I said, I've suscribed to you channel and listen to some of your work... Both BT and solos...
"John Mayer Style in E" is really good demonstration of what anyone benefit studying the masters... ;-)
John is obviously guitar virtuoso but also wonderful song writer!
I'll keep my eyes on you cat!

It has been very quiet these days, I'm working too much, not enough time for my six strings. :icon_whoknows:

Anyway, to live it up a bit, how about a collaboration using one of these BT's, if allowed?
Needless to say that I'm nowhere near Richards playing, but I'd try anyway...

Anyone? My current favourite would be the 70's in E, just to vent a little... :music2:

I know what you mean about not enough time and about too much work!

I'd be up for that Gerd - whatever BT you fancy and I'd try and fit in.
Assuming I can remember how to plug the electric guitar in! :icon_whoknows:

OK, I calmed down a bit and downloaded the 8 bar Blues, 7 minutes long. I recorded some licks when my @@!!####Win10 computer decided to reboot while I went for dinner. :motz:

Everything's got lost, but I'm still in the mood for this slow Blues. :dance:
Key to the highway is stil one of my favourites.

The mp3 I got from youtube is at limit (clipping),maybe Richard can provide us the original one?

I've sent an email to your board email. :big_smile:

I'll open another thread as soon as I get the file! :dance:

BTW Win10 rebooted another time and again I lost my work. Searched for a way to prevent Win10 from reboot, but it turned out not to be that easy with the latest update. I tried to set my connection to metered, this should work according to some experts.
I'll use my Tonelab LE instead of the Toneport/Pod farm, it saves it settings always. :big_smile:
