Very nice improvement Anton, it is such a good approach to use the metronome and you are doing it well. Regarding the bass notes, since we have the same guitar let me tell you my set up and you try if you want. It was actually also Dennis who point it out to me the thin bass notes. Our guitars are thin body so the bass notes are weaker, but when they are plugged we can use electronic to help. I normally set my guitar equalizer with the high to the minimum (-12) the mid at 0 and the bass at +12. The I use a small amplifier and put emphasis on the bass.

Great work Anton

Anton, as Neil said in his review, you are a being a very good boy slowing this tune down and using a metronome.

I learned this tune before TG with tab that had errors, and had to start over with the good tab here.

Now comparing with your video I see that my picking order is reversed in some places.

Here I go again, but not as much to correct this time ... but good for you, thanks for the help !

Hi Anton,

Nice job, you're coming along fine on this. I did miss the little bird in the cage you had on your first video though :laugh:
