Hi Bill, Well you saw the settings. I just leave it wide open on the tone and work it from the guitar tone knobs, that gives me all the options. Duke

Nice touch! You certainly get a different sound when using bare fingers rather than a pick. I need to try that.

@Peter...I see that you have made progress with the tune.  I would suggest that you play the tune with a metronome.  This will help get you more comfortable with the tune.  It is...

Hi Peter .. you're doing the most important thing, practicing and moving into it!   For me, taking things really slow and playing it while tapping my foot always seems to help.

You should have an A harmonica which you will play in 2nd position (key of E).

My bad on that one. I forgot to re-position the camera to show Rick's guitar. We'll get it next time.

Hi Guys, Just stick with it. Careful listening and focused practice will get you there.

Ramster, Love Fats and got to sit in with Muddy several times when Fats was in the band. I'll have to get his recording first though. Duke

Hi Peter, I believe what you are refering to is the Charleston rhythm like Stevieboy is playing on his video along with me. It is usually played in downstrokes but if down and up...
