Same with SWOLA, forced himself to record a lick a week! Sounded sultry, like a porn track. You just gave me an idea, jamming to PornHub.

Uncle B!!! Love it bro

So...couple of thangs...or a few thangs...first, love you man!!...second, the notion of including folks in your plan, "immonna jam every day", immonna work out everyday, has proven historical evidence of helping folks succeed...so, Atta boi!!...third, there are no wrong notes, I remember an interview with Steve Lukather, and possibly Billie Joel, who both said something along the lines of, if you make a "mistake", just play it again so it sounds like you meant to do it...this also gives a brutha, or sistah the chance to rephrase the mistake in question and build on its sonic impact...and I guess last, when I first went pro, my mentor told me I NEEDED to get a strat, something about sounds listeners didn't know they knew, but we're conditioned to like, and this iconic guitar is an "industry standard" , much like an SM-57, SM-58, Fender Twin, etc, etc...I tried a million strats, which I didn't like, until the 1 I played and couldn't leave the store without, even though I had no money...I still have that guitar, and love it today as much as the first time I picked it up...thank you Ben, you're one of my favorites

I really enjoyed that one and I like your explanation at the end on how you approached it

George Knoll

Best in the series so far. Esp. the explanation at the end.

Chuck Saeger

Aha! You let on to the thought process George!
