Here is Ben's Blues. Great great jam from a pretty non-bluesy dude. Thanks guys!

Greg-meister !

Very nice... as I said in the Bushido thread, just a couple of flat bends and I think some licks could benefit from more 'snap' and attitude like at 0.17. It's hard to describe what I mean by 'snap' but it's like the phrases need to be jerked out at the last minute.. it's like waiting until the moment has almost passed and then the lick happens quickly. Almost behind the beat. All blues mojo stuff !

To make Bens Blues Mojo more clear: you have to lose your woman first, she has to run away, taking your guitar with her, you have to suffer and really feel the blues... Seriously, great take!

Ben's advices are clearly the best as this is his creation - other than that, I really don't have anything to add! Great going G-man!

Very nice take! I like the tone and performance very well done! A few mistakes here and there!
9 from me!

Good playing mate! As Ben said, there are some thing to adjust as timing in some fast licks and some bends and vibratos but the overall is really good. Your tone is also great! It's another 9 from me.
