Liked the video. Would also like to see more riffs for a 4 string CBG.

Ha!  I call it my version of the Infinite Monkey Theorem.  Given enough time, I'll eventually come up with something worth listening to.

ED, that's called "free jazz." LOL!

Aw, man.  You're killing my Zen.  I picked these up by copying.  My MO is to have a sip of something strong and pick out different patterns until people stop looking at me funny and the cats stop yowling.

If this stuff was hard, I wouldn't be playing it!! I'm a simpleton. For as complex as my music is, it's all smoke and mirrors. This stuff is easy to grasp, easy to play and fun to crank up.
