Hi I'm Andy Aledort and i can play better than you!

[andyaledort]

It's a small Blackstar combo, 20 watt HT Studio 20, that I've been using for all the video instruction for a while now. Its' great, really easy to get a good clean or dirty tone really quickly, and it's not expensive. It's been a workhorse for me for the last year....

@Themology

Maybe coz even the original artist rarely plays the same solo twice. You need to get off on the feel not a rigid note format.

@Themology He says "Here's a lick played in that style", not exactly like the song.

[Themology]

Why are none of the licks are actually La Grange licks? They are right in the beginning, but then, become less and less correct. I don't get it.
