Hi, there. I am from Austria. This is my first insert. Sorry, my English is not the best. If somebody has tips for me, this would be fine. I am 64 and played Guitar when i was young. after 40 Years i tryed again but this time electric. The Bending after the #9 Accord was hard. The jump is wide and quick. So i learnd the bending with 4 finger. Now i think it is better but i need some time to do.

Welcome to the forum Franz! That was very nicely played! If you want some feedback, the only suggestion I could make is that during the faster sections, you get slightly rushed - playing the notes a tiny bit too early. It's a subtle thing. I do the same thing; I find that just practicing it some more until you're totally relaxed with the whole thing is all it takes to fix that.
Overall though, beautifully played and once again, welcome to the forum!

Hi Valentine Blue! Welcome to the forum and I hope you stick around and keep posting! With regard to feedback, I think jack1982 was spot on: ...during the faster sections, you get slightly rushed - playing the notes a tiny bit too early. It's a subtle thing. I do the same thing; I find that just practicing it some more until you're totally relaxed with the whole thing is all it takes to fix that... Also, a general thing I focus on in my practising is to work out which notes should be played on a beat and aim to hit them when my foot hits the ground. It'll keep your playing locked-in with the drum and feel of the piece. Loved the tone sounded great! What equipment do you have and what recording software do you use?

Thank you for the warm welcome. The relax game is probably the supreme discipline. I had to take a break for 3 months because my thumb was overstrained. Now I specifically practice holding the plectrum loosely and not cramping it.Cuban musicians can do that perfectly. Rhytmic is the particular difficulty for me with John Ganapes. Very different from classical pieces that I played a lot in my youth, but also much more difficult than the normal country blues. My Recording Equipment is a eleven Rack from Avid. I think i bought one of the last they produce and Software i use Band in a Box. That`s all. Thank`s
