The Friendly 12bar Blues Guitar Forum

Happy you enjoy this "more conventional" way of noodling some blues I do. I'm no jazz guy, although I'm listening to some classics more often lately. Sounds strange, but I can listen to John Lee Hooker for hours, while I seldom play for example Wes Montgomery or other jazz albums I have. ...

Thanks!

That's Blues I like!
Gibsons single coil sound - GAS attack

BTW - any copyrights? I have a short GoPro video which needs some background noodling, I'd play some notes over it.

Can't help falling into BB King mode - nice one!
I'm open for a collab, but can't say when...

Great!

Hope you enjoy Yes, especially the 3 guys! That's a Blues I could do a collab - slow enough and just pentatonic :lol: This guy (on the keys) from Germany is a comedian, usually doing a very weird sort of comedy. He plays a lot of instruments and he is really good... The guitar guy isn't bad either....

My son played on it and made the video. Looks quite professional

I think they've until fairly recently been on a very long tour round parts of the USA.

Good to know!

I agree, the second one is even better!
Tone is great as always.

Stay healthy!

Corona is still determines our life - I hope you're doing well. Found this and wanted to share it:

Thanks... rehearsal is the point.
No free time, locked at home with my family, no time to really practice.
This virus makes me mad.

I tried to play this and that, but nothing really worked. Today I deleted all of it and started over after hearing that there ain't no sunshine anymore. Chords are different, but somehow some notes might fit. Sorry for not being able to add better playing...

Sad to hear... recently a lot musicians died, most of Corona like Ellis Marsalis, Wallace Roney and others.
Hard times.

Jazz is way out of my league, but I'll give it a try. We can extend it if anyone else will join... You've set the level quite high :pray: Unfortunately I can't tell you when I have time - we're all at home (shutdown) and I don't have a room for me and my guitars. Half of my job has to do with Intern...

Like I thought, it's made for that!

No, it's more than half a year since his last post. I hope he's doing well, Corona is affecting our life a lot.
