dc2009 Posted June 7, 2012 Share Posted June 7, 2012 Big fan of this piece, nicely performed, your economy of motion is seriously good! I'd just say see if you can change up your recording setup, I found the bass sound a bit muffled and the tone sounded a bit weak (I think the fault of the recording rather than your setup or playing).

Thunderthumbs Posted June 7, 2012 Share Posted June 7, 2012 Hi Ben. Nice fluidity. Just one little point, in the first phase of the bridge, where you are going back down to an F#, it actually continues up the neck on the 14th fret of the E string, and ends up on the 20th fret of the G string. Cheers, Pete. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark_Andertons Posted June 7, 2012 Share Posted June 7, 2012 Great playing of a great tune. Have to brush up those licks myself! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jdbrewst Posted June 8, 2012 Share Posted June 8, 2012 Really good work! Aside from comments made already, I think there's a final variation on the chorus that you're missing (if memory serves me right) - it appears for the whole of the second chorus and for the last half of the third and final chorus. It's just a little tweak on the first chorus pattern whereby you go up the minor 7th in bar two of the 4 bar phrase, rather than back to the minor 3rd. I might be mistaken but have a little listen.
