This is fabulous, John! Thank you!
Thanks Charles!
Thanks John , very smooth solo .
Hey John. Long time no speak. I’m in a new band with less slide work. So I haven’t checked in for a while.
As usual, your playing is so beautiful. You are a genius. You can teach your licks and tricks, but you can’t teach the brlliance in the beautiful melodies and riffs you create.

Thanks a lot Doug!
That intro is pretty sounding, it is so smooth and tasteful, it really draws a listener in to where you can feel it down in your soul. Great lesson. Do you favor the Cobalt over your other slides ?
Yeah, that.
This is my favourite lesson. Pretty much what I said when you put up licks 1&2 on YouTube.
Gives you all kinds of other melodic avenues to go down.
Thanks!
