Haha! Ouch! Sorry! Well who knew I was so powerful.Hey Shel,
This thread caused me to revisit NBGA. This time I decided I wanted to master the solo too, so I went to YT to watch some of Lindsey's performances as the solo is not in the TG lesson. I ran into difficulties with the bass line for the solo part, and then I noticed that, at least in the live performances I found on YT, he uses a different fingering than the TG lesson.
After a bit of research I found that in the live performances he is playing dropped D capo-ed on the fourth or third fret. Then he uses a four-string half-barre on the second fret (above the capo) most of the time when the TG lesson uses the open position. It's harder to play this way but now I can do the D2/D3 Travis picking base line from the solo.
So, Michele, it's your fault that my fretting hand is aching and I have to relearn NGBA B).
Fancy a duet?

Well I presume you're having fun then.
A duet sounds like fun. But... I'm missing something. Would you mind sending me a link to the live version you're referring to. I'm REALLY tired at the moment and I feel like I'm thinking through mud, but when I listen to the album I'm only hearing two sections. Some have singing over them and some don't, but.... I'm not hearing a solo section that is significantly different from the verse and chorus section that Neil tabbed in his lesson. So .... I presume I'm missing something.
