@JoshuaSkaja That's a good question! I think I'd leave it in 4/4 and use 16th notes for the fast parts (and 16th note triplets for the beginning of the run at :41). But if cut time makes more sense to you, do it that way. The main thing is to help yourself remember how it goes - and to have a tool for understanding what's going on rhythmically, harmonically and melodically. So as long as you get the rhythmic proportions right, I think you're alright.

@dhamburger1 Hi David, thanks so much for taking the time to put this stuff up for us. I have a question. If you were to transcribe this lick (I am), would you put this in cut time for ease of reading? I did, but I'm not sure it's right. Thanks!

Absolutely marvelous! The whole series - thank you so much.

outstanding brother- I am bass playing hack but really appreciate your feel and understand of this good stuff! great job on the instruction too! really the bomb!

[Shivalan]

Thanks - I really appreciate your teaching. I find it a little hard to follow because my theory knowledge isn't sufficient to take the most advantage. Any suggestions please? Meanwhile, I sincerely like your work, and your demeanor too! Best wishes.

@dhamburger1 I appreciate your feedback. I am looking at what looks like the level of effort. Easy. I saw B.B. King last year in Baltimore. He is smooth like butter, gentle touch. I can only imagine how Lucille is set up. I play a Schecter C/SH-1 with a Fender Vibro Champ SD.

@GONZOFAM7 I actually use .010s and pretty moderate (not paper-thin) action, and to me, a lot of the sound comes from having headroom - more than enough volume, so you don't have to pick too hard, but a dry enough tone that you can dig in a little as well. All very wordy and subjective I know. The tone on these videos is also not, as far as I'm concerned, anywhere near my ideal, but it works for getting the musical point across.

I love your videos, and your demeaner...
