Hey GMC! This is my solo for the Andy James competition. Thought I'd share it here if some of you would be interested in hearing it.

Good take and great playing!!! Best of luck!!! I always like to hear your takes

BTW I love the idea with that succession of 3 bends from the start. I saw the similar idea in your take for Winter collab and has some DeGroot style and I like it very much That style for making bend, pre bend and again bend is like your signature and I love it

Thanks for the kind words my friends I don't worry about the prizes with these competitions as they are full of very talented players. I just use the opputunnity to experiment some of my ideas and hopefully a few folks will watch. Usually these competitions have lead to a good experience.

I honestly think that's the best approach

You should aim for making music and if inspiration strikes in the right moment, you will probably earn a high place in the competition. It's all about participating actually - as in life, the more you do something and perfect by learning from what you do and the others around you, the better you become. DG, I really think you are a good player, man! Keep rocking!
