Damn, Chris! That is a very solid start, just since the weekend. That little piece is so pretty.

Can't wait to see more. B)

:cheer: Great take off Chris!! And really happy you're sharing it with us, that made my morning start smiling! :cheer:

One little thing, make sure the chord after the hammeron pull offs is a C major chord, not Am7. Also very pleased to see you're practicing the timing right by playing along etc. that's the way to do it. ;) I thought you did pretty well at 81%!

Keep going Chris, can't wait to see some more and thanks! :)

Thanks for the live vid Vanessa.

Here's my progress so far, just to show folks we aren't wasting our time together. I thought I'd attack the hardest part first as then I'd be even more motivated to get the rest down. It is tricky but fun. I found it too hard to play the first hammer on and offs while fretting the B string to get the high E. I can do it using the open high E string but don't have it always under control yet. I am also Starting with thumb on the A string instead of low E sometimes as it all takes a lot of thinking about still. Hope to get it to automatic soon by playing it ad nauseam at 50% tempo.... 80% is still a little fast.

Hey Chris,

It was fun seeing you working on this song. It's tricky isn't it. And doesn't recording SUCK!

Thanks for the peek. I've been distracted by other things (how unusual ;) :P ) and your post reminds me to to back and focus on this again.

You sound good on a steel 6-string.

Thanks!

Ness I enjoyed the live performance videos you've posted here; very cool indeed.

Great Job Chris. I too found this song "catchin". The timing on the intro is wicked tough, but you playing it a little slow is just the ticket. Another week, and SHAZAM, you'll be there. :laugh:
