[HailCostanza]

Hey man, I thought it WAS great! That is an extremely hard song to play, and you had a good run at it. Congrats, keep practicing, and post an update vid soon.

Good luck!

[Scrambledgregg0]

That was good.

[luthier78]

To tell the truth I only play the classic guitar, whn I chose the nick I started with my name & was not avaialble then trying & trying at the end thought about luthier :D

Do you have tabs of petite eture? I wud luv to study it is a pretty nice piece !

[luthier78]

Bravo Mr !

[MelloYello13]

Thank You, luthier78. Do you make guitars or just repair them? Yours is a rare talent.  Bravo back atcha.

Good performance overall of a difficult piece. One suggestion is to slow it down in sections to make the piece flow more smoothly. This is a common mistake I make in my playing too.

[MelloYello13]

Thanks, I do appreciate that. And, I did make a couple of mistakes, but I purposely fluctuated the tempo in different parts of the piece. I know Rik plays it different. But, that slight change of tempo in certain parts is just the way I express the piece.

Don't get me wrong I do appreciate your advice, thanks again.

[geojones69]

dont be so hard on yourself--its a difficult piece!

[MelloYello13]

Thanks, geojones, I appreciate that.

[SophyaFromBrazil]

HAHAHA

You're not too bad.

I'll tell you what I think. I think you have a great voice and I really like your guitar performance. I hope you keep posting more vids.

Take care !!

[MelloYello13]

Muito obrigado, I'll have some more videos up soon, I'm just so busy all the time. But, soon I hope. Thanks again Sophya.

[SophyaFromBrazil]

[funfrogys]

[idinho]

thnx guy,i used to learn this piece from tab and it made me play wrong at 1:01,i will try to do it like you did.

[itsjustus13]

sounds good .... very good

[SquirrelBalm]

Nice one man. A couple of little hiccups are nothing - they're like the scratches in leather that prove it's genuine and unique.

[MelloYello13]

Hey thanks SquirrelBalm, I really appreciate those kind words.

[robinstl70]

Stop talking down to yourself. That was pretty good. You just need to slow down and work out the slower parts and use a metronome. Get some Bud Lights and wait for a rainy day and you can work out the whole song.

[MelloYello13]

Thanks robinstl70, I appreciate the kind words. Though, I don't really need a metronome, my tempo was fine, and I didn't deviate from it, I just misfretted in a couple of places. Thanks for the tip anyway.

[1summerstorms]

have I told you ...you play so very well.....

[saffronboots]

I saw the icon for this video and said to myself: I don't remember doing a second take...

Good job.

[MelloYello13]

Ha, I gotcha saffronboots. God created only a few perfect scalps. The rest he covered with hair.

[snarfsnarf911]

you rock dude

[skylarlindsey]

Thanks for letting me know about your video today. I think it was Wonderful!!

[wannabee420]

Excellent!!SWEEEEET

[MelloYello13]

Thanks, wannabee420. 420, ha, I like it.

[saboo480]

hmm on the end could you try a harmonic on the thirteenth fret while fretting the first fret on the b string hmm yes

[MelloYello13]

Pinching the harmonic on the first or thirteenth fret will both give a very high C. Your suggestion would give my the same result.

But,I messed up the pinch harmonic at the end anyway.

Thanks for the advice though.

[1summerstorms]

just beautiful mello
