Hi Joe --- thanks for the reminder.  Backing track is up.  That's Rick grooving with the snaps and slaps.  

It's the groove.

Hi Dennis --- can you remind me how you get the "distorted" note --- are you picking up a bit of an adjacent hole?

Yes, but only a little, as a little goes a long way with this technique.

Hi Jasyn --- if you click on "Other Lessons in this Series" which is located just under the right corner of the lesson video --- and then select --- Soloing and Playing to the Guitar's Strengths --- it will take you to the lesson where Chris breaks down the intro / solo / melody.

Hi All --- thanks for the feedback on the new sheet music.  For this lesson --- we're specifically interested in how the automated page turning worked for people on Duke's run-through.  Thanks.

Hi All --- over the next month, we will be updating how we present the sheet music / tab on the site.  For those of you taking this lesson, we're very interested to hear how you like our new design.  Thanks.

Hi Mike, 

I think the new tab format looks great. One comment would be to have the chord names noted above the tab. I would find this very helpful. 

Thanks for a great site!

I second Marty's request for the chords. 

Chet Atkins was asked once if he read music to which he replied, not enough to hurt me any.

Cheers

By the way, Mike, having the rhythm notated as it is now saved me hours on this. I had a really hard time with the 4th bar, and without the notation, it would have been so much harder. So thanks again!

Hi Pamela --- good question.  We don't support saving loops --- but may in the future.  

How would you like it to work?

Sweet Steve !!  That is some tasty playing.  What a great way to start the day.  I like the double stop / hammer on riff --- and the open string thing twists my mind.

Hi Bill --- thanks for letting us know.  My guess is that it is an interaction issue with your computer.  Can you email me at --- mike@sonicjunction.com --- letting me know a bit more about your computer

1. pc or mac

2. how old / new is it

3. have the videos ever worked wiht your computer (i.e. is this a new issue)

I will stick with you until we get it solved.
