That's awesome RC! With the kind of guys you got behind the parts and know-how, you got quite the steel coming back. Any chance for pictures when you get her back?

Those low strings on Sing Me Back Home are not as easy to get real clean as they might sound. It takes a little doing copping that classic phrasing. Nice stuff all the way around.

Another great Saturday session with the newest Sho Pro guitarist to be. Congrats on the Sho Pro guitar can't wait to here you play but I'm certain the old Emmons will be waiting in the wings if needed. JA

Joey, you know William will show us plenty with that Show Pro, but there ain't no way I can see that Emmons gathering dust anytime soon. The sustain and sound from his old regular would be hard to beat.

You're right Dan, William said he would never in a million years ever get rid of the Emmons.

I went on at 12:45. At 1:30 I gave up and called it a day. My question is...

What happened?

William said there were technical difficulties and he will rebroadcast shortly. No idea on what happened because signals were good on his end.

Outstanding broadcast, William! That Show Pro, gotta say, it sounds killer! Nice contrast with the Emmons. Looking forward to hear what it sounds like mic'd up for one of your project series.

Daniel you were right, So afraid of losing you. Great song and Saturday lesson was a fine start to this song. That was well worth the price of admission!

It's like William mentioned, this song is like a chord clinic. I try to keep in mind it's not about trying to learn as many licks as possible right away, it's getting good move down that you can apply to other songs, in different keys. That is one thing about this instrument, you can learn a few things in one position, you can take it to just about all of them.

That Tommy White phrase, the Intro, and the back-up part in A we went over are worth way more than the $5 cover charge.It's like William mentioned, this song is a chord clinic.
