Hello Abel Thank you very much for your kind attention to answer me. Yes the audio quality is not the best, but your personal playing way and the interpretation of the song is really delightful. Please if you can, record the song again with a good microphone, I shall be eternally grateful to you, because I would like (if you permit me to do it) to record on a CD your covers in order to listen at this beautiful music driving the car too! Thank you again Fabio
Hello Absolutely WONDERUL!!! Are you or were you a professional guitarist? You are really skilled and able to perform fast chords strings. May I ask you how do you get that wonderful sound? What kind of effects and what level you use? Thank you very much, I am so delighted to listen again and again this play. Also the Shadows cover is wonderful. Please go on this way!! Greetings from Italy Fabio
Glad you liked it. I have always been an amateur. The sound is a basic strat sound, but the recording is very bad though the tiny mic of the camcorder.
I use only one echo pedal called MagicStomp from Yamaha (now discontinued).
You realize the value of playing the melody as well as putting in some really great embellishments in the song. The hell with the BIAB, you sound great!!!!
That was great. one of my favorite songs. Where can i find some slow motion lessons on the way you did that. I would be willing to pay you for them. I watched Rick Nelson as a kid. Thanks
Abdel, this is great. I play lead in a small band and we just started playing this song. I was looking for variation to James Burton's original. Your version inspired me so I am using a few of your licks along with my own. Like yourself I have just started playing again after a very long hiatus (Careers & family do get in the way). Keep up the great work. I have your website bookmarked.
Abe...Ricky Nelson's just on the other side of the door....He likes your playing, and so do I.... Lots of people are lookin' and listenin' ~*O^O*~ Now take a bow!! And do an encore....We're lovin' it out here in California....
Abe, I mean't to add me to your list of admirers :) By the way my son saw you playing and was so excited. You are a great guitar player Abe...since when are you playing?
abelkhin great guitar picker you are,i'd like to see you play duane eddy and the ventures songs,thanks for the memories and keep it up,every one's watching you.. lou
Wow!, just stumbled across this video looking to improve my own rendition of Hello Mary Lou. I think I'll put my guitar back in it's case, you put me to shame..Sensational. John
great playing...awesome...dear Johnkahu, how can you say that abel is better than Chet Atkins? chet is a finger picking guitar player, I've watched all the video's of Abel but can't find any finger picking?!
Abel play's awesome, great sound, great control of the song, very awesome.....chet is awesome in his style.
Hey man! Are you fantastic. Better than Chet Atkins. You're vibrant and alive. Just get a better background and you'll be 100%+. If you're editing your video, you can put your url as a title.. do it so we can visit you!

You have given me a challange. I am determined to get your vewrsion down, a very humbling experience. I have weeks invested in putting it together.
But it is slowly getting there.
It is certainly giving me and my '63 Strat a work out. But this song deserves to be playeds on a '63.
Any chance you might have a tab available for it, to help speed things up for me?
Please?????
