Hi Brian @brianlarsen ,

I have just listened 10+ times with good sound on and it is probably a little quieter and the ā€œattackā€ is a little more present and seems or is a fraction longer, but I see and hear nothing at all from a complete…someone else who also hears what Brian (at age :roll_eyes: :innocent: :joy:) hears over normal speakers…

(Yesterday I told my wife that the straight ear is not quite right and that it needs a hard jet of water …)

Before I post my post, I listened a few more times…I think the bass is also somewhat obscured by the somewhat hard high string…anyone?

O Before I completely forget it… Thank you :smiley: :sunglasses: and nice that you came to listen and made me listen so critically and I hope that next time I will not make any more audible deviations :joy: … Oh oh, it made me laugh again :smile:

Greetings and have a nice time In Dublin :smiley:

:smiling_face_with_sunglasses: Rogier…that was very well played and I think it sounds even cooler on the electric guitar! You seem way more relaxed than what I pretended to be when I recorded it, and that last chord sounds very sweet the way you make it fall. I must confess I had to swear a bit at it :speak_no_evil_monkey:

Now…The Steady Thumb Blues! Those notes are running too fast one after the other for my poor slow neurons :joy: But I’m getting there and the good news is that this Primer is really a good preparation for it…so after the fast passages you finally get to a few bars that you can already can play :sweat_smile:

And me as well for you! :blush::blush::blush:

Good morning Silvia ,

I’m just guessing that for us who play electric, the acoustic will sound a little nicer and vice versa. :smile:
This is of course not my first and has been on a regular/more serieuse basis since Justin the
Lick in Riff
launched I won’t record until I have played along with Justin in a relaxed manner many times away from the computer screen ( I can practice this easy times 20 or 30 minutes a day when I really want : need" to learn)…

And I will start with those Steady Thumb Blues on Monday… I think or maybe a peek in a moment …why am I typing this long …I want it now :roll_eyes: , but I have already listened to it a few times and this morning I woke up with a large part in my head in terms of melody …

Some Italian words now pops into my head that I learned at a very young age :laughing:…I would never use that :innocent:… :roll_eyes:

So you skip the Boom Boom Bass ?because you are now continuing with the most difficult one… so am I strating in a moment because of this

the housework will just have to wait :shushing_face:

Thank you very much :smiley: :sunny:

Sounded like a very bluesy version of the Beatles’, Can’t Buy Me Love. Very nice, calmed me and relaxed me. However, I wanted to sit back and lite a cigarette and it’s been years, so that part, not so much, but my bad on that. (I did not and won’t again) Cheers!

Hi Jim @jvlynch

Thank you very much for listening and helping me remember how happy I am that I have gotten rid of that horrible habit/addicion for more than 5 years now… very occasionally I think about it for a moment, but within 10 seconds I go from Ooo that was nice to Ooo I am so glad that I don’t do it anymore… :sweat_smile: :partying_face:

Nice that it relaxed you :smiley: :sunglasses:

Happy Sunday Rogier :blush:

The Boom Bass seemed actually more difficult to me :thinking: I’ll check it again, but after learning the 2 Steady Thumb it probably won’t seem that difficult anymore :sweat_smile:

When we wake up in the morning our brain is fresh and restored…such a pity to waste such golden energy for chores! :innocent: You can do the chores later on in between the guitar sessions…very long sessions are not good, often I do the housework as breaks :shushing_face:

When this happens to me I consider myself halfway there! already, the technical aspect here doesn’t seem too difficult, certainly it’s not if you can play the Primer.

Hi Silvia @Silvia80
O O it is monday now :blush:
It remains surprising how something comes so much easier for one person than for another and/or that after one thing everything else suddenly becomes so much easier.
I don’t remember how long ago, but I’m guessing a little over 2 years ago I stopped taking these blues lessons that I bought from Justin. 10 songs for only 1 tenner… I learned 2 and at the steady tumb I gave up and put it on the ā€˜to do’ list…just played my first Steady Thumb Blues without looking at the tabs and that after three days… That means for me that I can now start playing with feeling ( Still, it can still take a long time, there is a fingerknot in it for me … or 3 :smile:)

:laughing: …Hail to Silvia :raised_hands: :joy:

You are absolutely right about the technical aspect… but as I indicated above, 3 times … now that I look more closely, there are two for me … one is what Justin indicates, B7 … but what is it? nice… nice to do well today at least at a slower pace 4 times in a row…

Thank you for letting me think better/closer :sunglasses:

Greetings
