Seems it was a day for Telecasters.
A rare day off from work gave me some free time in the day to get this one recorded. Definitely think Telecaster bodies are my fav guitar shape. They've grown on me in a huge way - I just feel at home playing one. It could change, but doesn't feel that way at the moment.
Not much to say for this one - though the rhythm track is my own efforts and the drum track was created using the the free application "Hydrogen".

WPB, the only critique I can offer of that one is that it is just not long enough. All these recordings you've posted are sounding really good. I haven't been on this board for about a month and a half! Sadly, it looks like it has finally fallen completely apart. I'm going to subscribe your YT channel, so I'll see when you post something. I continue to be bothered with what I think is just arthritis at the base of my right thumb, and haven't played guitar since I've last posted here. We'll be traveling some until mid-August, and I likely won't be back on this forum - at least until after that. Might have another go at playing guitar after that, depending on how my hand is feeling. If I'm not back on here, I'd like to encourage you to keep practicing and posting some videos periodically. I'd also like to give a shout out to you and everyone else who has participated in this forum - Jack, Joachim, Phil, Grandpa, T-bone, Mick, and all the others that have been in and out of here over the years. WPB Phil, keep your nose to the grindstone, and your plectrum to the strings!

Bruce, I am sorry to hear about your disadvantage - I hope you will get back into playing eventually.
I still play and practice almost every day, almost exclusively core jazz techniques (inversions, scales and arpeggios). It's hard to tell if I am actually improving, but I enjoy the practice...
With the dwindling activity on the forum, I think it's perhaps unwise to exclusively post videos of practice studies unrelated to all of JohnG's great material. John's students and followers check the forum from time to time, and it might look strange if there are only renditions of alternative practice studies unrelated to Blues You Can Use. That's how I feel, anyway...
- Joachim
