Ivan Milenkovic5th January 2010Sounds great Vasilije some very nice ideas in there, I like repetition too, but other forms of it. This is really groovy, and the last lick is great
Krisztian Lovrek5th January 2010Nice lesson Vasilije, I love the jazz-fusion guitarist's playing.
Much different as the rocker's thinking :-)
Vasilije Vukmirovic5th January 2010Thanks guys!
Adrian, I used Line6 ux1 , and set my tone in gearbox(you get it with toneport). Guitar itself(Artcore) is among cheapest guitars in the universe, 300 $ or so
Staffy5th January 2010Cool!!! Sounds very Benson-ish to me, to use repetetive phrases in a rhytmic approach is great!!! :-)

Hi GMC!
I am big fan of repetitions in solos, as well as in compositions, so I wanted to demonstrate how the same phrase can be played 2 or 3 times with variation at the end. I also added little balcan ethno phrase at the last phrase with some thrills. Harmony is very typical, Am7 Dm7 Am7 Am7, still, that doesn’t limit us because we still can make rhythmical variations, as shown in the solo.
Regards!
Vasilije
