How Long > Solo Breakdown, First Chorus

We're re-issuing one of Jerry's most popular lessons with re-mastered video and updated loop points. From Jerry:

The licks I'm playing behind Rick's vocal are very similar to what I play in the intro so we are going straight to the solo.

For this solo I use a device to slightly alter the sound. In this hi-tech digital world we are going the opposite way with the most low tech of devices: a simple toilet paper roll. It gives a different tone to the harp and the contrast in sound is a nice way to create interest. Have fun with this.

Jerry
