Hi Ivan,

This is my take on you lesson. I used picks instead of fingers as my nails were getting all worn-out by steel strings. tongue.gif I played in 110 pbm.

I know there are couples of places in the middle where I was bit off tempo, and couldn’t hit nice clean chords.

Please let me know your suggestions for improvement.

Paul

Hey mate,

You played great the notes, and the sound is very nice as well. Almost all the notes came out. I think the main thing you have to work on is rhythm.

This kind of a track is in fast shuffle tempo, so this means that all the licks should follow the tempo. I know it is a bit hard to follow that shuffle feel when on lower tempos, but try to get that blues shuffle feel and really play the notes according to that feel. I think this will make the solo sound much much better. You have the backing tracks in the lesson, and I inserted shuffled blues groove, so you can get a hand of that feel while listening to those drums.

I went back to your lesson, and and listen again. I see what you mean about shuffle rhythm. I will work on this. Thanks for your suggestion.
