OK Dan, Thanks pal! I have finally figured it out this way...

<font face="monospace" size="2"><pre>
1-------------------------
2-------------------------
3-------------------------
4--------------RKL-1------
5----------1-1A-----------
6------1-1B---------------
7-----1-------------------
8----1--------------------
9-------------------------
10------------------------
11------------------------
12------------------------
</pre></font>

My RKL is the flat lever.

It sounds right! I'll have to try it your way to see if it "works" better. I have a hard time getting that RKL fully in place before picking the string. The same lick repeats also at the 13th fret, same tab. Thanks for the time to reply...

Here's how I play it. I like the way the 4 note passage on the 5th string sounds with the Legato feel. They go by pretty quick and you have to be accurate with the bar.

5__________1-1A~~~~3A~~~~4A__
6______1-1B__________________
7____1_______________________
8__1_________________________

Some of the best licks out of Nashville have been very simple basic licks.

Hey Jack and Dan> I agree. I love simple and less is more. Sometimes the simplest of things can sound larger than life; when played properly(I'm with ya).
I was making note of the Major Scale and John; please ask of this group here in all and every learning tasks you require pal. I absolutely don't want to shy you away with a remark of anything that sounds like it's easy. I think everything can be hard in it's own means of where you are at in your progression. And everyone here wants to see progression; so keep'um coming my friend.
Anything we can do to help you or anyone at all> We will all give it a good whirl.
I learn something every time someone post information(even if I already knew it)> "Relearning is the best tool of all".

Hey Richard,

I don't think you need that amp...I hear all the time from these guys that "it's all in the right hand"...I experienced what they are talking about one time, it just happened one night when I was playing, and I can't get it back again. Now I'm ****ed, depressed and discouraged!
