Great solo and nice tone of your gibson :)

@kleinebudde

thnks for the kind words

Your guitar is a bit out of tune and your string attack is too heavy due to the use of a pick... would have been smoother (and nearer to original) with finger picking...

@k00gan

I know but I can't play finger picking :( Wish I could.

@lagels All you have to do is practice without a pic...start watching guys like Knopfler and Derek Trucks. I started focusing more on my fingers and am not to the point where I rarely use one...

[lagels]

@JazzyDave Heey I try sometimes,but its hard. still so much to learn haha.

@lagels keep at it champ, learn something like money for nothing, or something else by knopfler.should help you develop your fingerstyle, its a useful thing to have in your arsenal ;)

@lagels hey pretty cool cover, you told that you learned it by ear, i play for a long time guitar but im not able to play songs by ear so how did you get skill ? is it just a question of talent feeling or did you some special exercises for it ?
