To stand up in front of an audience and play like that doesn't deserve criticism. Keep going the way you are and you will definitely go far.

@spicecrop - I certainly didn't intend to imply that the lack of female guitarists was down to anything other than straightforward choice. I hope that Jess will inspire other young women to have a go. So, please take the phrase "who are much under-represented", and replace it with "of whom there are too few"! As the sexes are roughly equal in numbers, you'd expect there to be as many women playing as men... but there aren't.

@reghin79 Fender Strat, Rolland cube, done.

@RoathRipper Behold a fucking Idiot! As in you!

@dontsaymattress I don't think women are "under represented". the "fact" is that there are simply less female guitarist than men. Especially very good ones like the talented Jess Lewis. It is not a matter of prejudice or male shovenism , It is simply about numbers. More men choose to play guitar than women. Hopefully players like Jess will change that and it is changing but the fact still remains.

what's that shes playing out of , a Rolland cube?

[Lydian7lc]

no where near perfect??? that was as clean as alex plays it...good job:)

[dontsaymattress]

Fantastic! Don't ever stop.... You have obviously invested a HUGE amount of effort in your playing, and I hope you will be an inspiration to others - especially women - who are much under-represented in the guitar community. Power to your elbow, Jess, and I, for one, will be looking out for you!

great playing Jess...do you just jam over any random tracks? if you have 10 minutes spare try jamming over my V12 track..you'll quite likely add more variety..i basically use the same scales over everything..unlike yourself..again well done
