Sounds a lot like the Drug Store theme from EarthBound (Also called Humoresque of a Little Dog), which appears in Brawl.

Nice picking. Nicely paced, too. As others have said, it's too easy to get trapped in the speed thing. I did it way back when in the 1970s, after listening to way too much Grossman. Dave Laibman really had the edge.

Btw: Dave Laibman played this waay before D Miller;
but suspect that lots of other guitarists fiddled
with it in key of C. Adding interesting bass lines
on guitars got kick started with some early lute players doing things like Couperin tunes from the
1600's! Glad you don't try to play it too fast...

In the Dale Miller transcription he says that his version was 'based' on the Laibman one. I don't like to play rags too fast (except for a couple like Maple Leaf), since they were never intended to be played that way, and they end up sounding like novelty tunes if they are.

This is great!! Im a secret fan of rag, I play a few rag tunes myself. I think if you did get a thumbpick you would sound better.

Thanks, like I said, my next guitar will have a little better bass response (or maybe it's just the microphone?).
