This is one of my top three Paul Franklin songs off of his LP "JUST PICKIN"! I bought the album when he first cut it!!!!

I by no means play it like he does and hope to one day!

Paul, sent a PM asking if it was ok to post. Don't know any other way to contact you so if this is not ok i will remove it out of high respect for you!

Thanks!

Thanks everyone!

I recently took some advice after 30 years of doing it my way and made a change in effects.

My good friend Mike Bagwell told me to take all effects off, even reverb and slowly add a liitle back at a time! Wow, you really get the sense of how effects can hurt as much as they help.

With Mike's advice i think i have the string seperation i have been trying to get back to for years. Just shows that adding more isn't always good.

Thanks Mike and i appreciate your total honesty when i ask what you thought.
It's awesome to hear good and bad for me as a player!

If any of the pro's look at this i really would like their opinions of how i played this. NO, i'm not looking for recognition just always tryin to do better.

Trust me, nobody from a major label wants this old man playin for them.

thanks!
