Thank you Tim! I'm glad you like it. I hope it shows that songs can be built with the smallest of ideas. Not everything needs to be stairway to heaven! It was fun to throw this...

Hey there Jay! these are awesome. I played through them all and two things jumped out at me. One, your ears are definitely hearing the possibilities, and two, you've got the chops...

Any advices/tips from members ?
2018 thumb Bruce dumes left a comment on: Little Wheel Ending
Thanks Peter! Unfortunately, it's hard for me to get just a little natural distortion. I live in a small apartment with lots of neighbors, so even with small amps, it's hard to...

Alright, here's another one, with more distortion as suggested by Steve. Distortion is kind of fun, I have to admit. Thanks again for the advice, Steve! And Peter, nice job! I...

Right here on Sonic Junction, in the upper right corner of the menu it says "skype lessons"....look for me in that link. Thank You! it is all done online LIVE
1631 thumb Steve lauder left a comment on: Little Wheel Ending
Hey Bruce Yes, Duke said to keep it light. But to emulate the tone on his track it needs to break up. He has an overdrive pedal - a bad monkey. But i don't think he is using it...
2018 thumb Bruce dumes left a comment on: Little Wheel Ending
Hey Steve, thanks for the advice! I can always use it. I have basically zero experience playing lead guitar outside of my guitar room, except for noodling at the guitar shop. I...

In this first lesson I show you how I approach playing the song. Then we discuss the fundamentals of slide techniques. Finally we explore the main riff of the song and basic...
1631 thumb Steve lauder left a comment on: Little Wheel Ending
Hey Bruce, sounds good. If you have a small amp (5 watts) that you can crank, i think it adds to the vintage of the track - notice Duke's track has that breaking up sound. Thick...
2018 thumb Bruce dumes left a comment on: Little Wheel Ending
Hey Duke. So here's another try at this. I practiced playing it along with JLH and I think I've got a much better handle on the groove now. There's a kind of a bubble you feel when...

Greetings Guitar Wizards!! Coney Island Avenue! Here we go in the key of A with a song that I wrote a few years ago to celebrate my favorite street in Brooklyn. In this lesson...
1631 thumb Steve lauder left a comment on: Little Wheel Ending
A fun song. I am going for the feel/mood here more so than correctness. A couple of cloth bandaids are allowing me to continue due to blisters. I do very little finger picking....

Hello Friends, Guitar offers us many different ways to play the same note. This is truly one of the instrument’s strengths because it allows for a great deal of variance of nuance...
804 thumb Rick estrin left a comment on: Sloppin' and Slidin' First Verse Breakdown
Hi Bill - You are correct. The bass line does have a semi-minor, or “blues“ minor feel and sound, so you can hit the major 3rd, (the unbent three draw) on the V chord, but not on...

Hi Mr. Corey.. My first video playing acoustic blues here on Sonic Junction. Hope to get some tips from you, in order to improve my blues guitar. Best regards
Rick Bill blatner left a comment on: Sloppin' and Slidin' First Verse Breakdown
Hi again, So I'm noticing that the guitar line has a minor feel and you never hit the 3-draw natural, even over the 1 chord.  Is that right?  You can't do the 3rd of the scale...

Hey Duke! Glad to read on your Facebook page how much you are enjoying Poland! I'll bet the food is amazing! Here's another attempt at Little Wheel. It really is such an elusive...

Hey Sonic Junction - This week I’ll be breaking down verse one of my new piece, Sloppin’ and Slidin’. Like a lot of the verses in this piece, this first verse contains mostly draw...

Blisters, ouch, and no crazy glue to remedy :(

Hi Friends, We are on the last lesson for "Little Wheel" this week and I reitterate many of the points about this song and John Lee Hooker's style. My most important advise is to...

Michael, that’s a great idea. Keep your eyes peeled for future lessons. 
804 thumb Rick estrin left a comment on: Sloppin' and Slidin' Performance
Like I said, it’s hard to describe (at least for me) - But the key is usually finesse rather than muscle. 
Rick Bill blatner left a comment on: Sloppin' and Slidin' Performance
Huh!  Scale down the focus and magnitude of he compression.  I would have thought the opposite.  Thanks - that's definitely something to explore.  Yeh, Sonny Boy does some things...
