Soryy i repost that video because i'll make them private on youtube and i though it may help some student to let them on SJ. Sorry for the notification.
Hello Corey,
this my first draft for this lesson. It tooks me a long time to choose a key for my voice, that why i'm so late. I sing in the high register and the melody isn't good but i'm workin' on it. Finally it appears that singing loud in higher register is better than in the medium register, it gives more energy ! When i sung in low register the song fell like a ballad...
I had to say that he extra bars are a little disturbing too ;)!
I had no time to had the extra work you taught here but i've tab everything and workin' on it.
At the end i wanted to play a final lick with your A7 voicing but having praticing it in open G just before, i missed the good strings and play that funny end...
I've notice that my choke at the end of the riff (at the 12th) fret is not good. I think for the tempo i rush a little bit but i stay around 105 bpm max...
That's all, thanks for everythin
Peace
JD
