	Dennis gruenling left a comment on: Scaled Down 1st Chorus Breakdown That first run up the scale, when I hit the 3 draw half-step, it is slightly distorted. Meaning, I bleed in just a hair of the next higher adjacent hole (hole 4 draw) to get that...

	Bruce dumes left a comment on: Soft Winds Chords and Rhythm Hey Duke! I jumped right into soloing. Just picked up (well, it jumped into my arms and I couldn't put it down) a vintage 335 and I feel like it's given my playing a real boost. It...
	Chris eldridge left a comment on: Old Grimes A Section Melody Ok, thanks for that! To be honest, it’s not something that I worry about too much. I think that the notes that you are striking directly with the flatpick are loud enough that they...
	Gregory kelly left a comment on: Old Grimes A Section Melody Yes exactly.
