    Default Quick Blues Improv

    Hey Guys,

    I just posted a quick video on youtube of my USA Deluxe series HSS strat. For me it's the best and most versatile fat strat that fender have ever put out there. I even noticed Prince playing one in one of his recent video's.

    Excuse the sloppy playing (I'm just an amature ) but it gives an idea of the sound from the 'noiseless' neck pickup.

    Very cool, and I do not call that "sloppy." I enjoyed that a lot.

    "Blues in the closet?" I think you play plenty well enough to come out of that closet now.

    Wow, nice closet Lev!

    Very good, the only thing that was "sloppy" there was your picking (to me), maybe its just cause Im used to pick diffrently.

    Very nice, Lev. Great guitar, too!

    Methinks you're being a little hard on yourself, as it wasn't sloppy at all to my ears. The blues ain't about hitting every note perfectly, anyway!

    Cool Lev. Now we get to see that Fretters aren't aliens from another planet (Voodoo) but real live people with guitars. Yea! The world is saved.

    Nice playing.

    Yeah! Great attitude man! That's wha' I'm talking about! Just let it rip!

    I agree with Spudman, good to see real people with real guitars!

    Sloppy? Amateur? What? When's you're album coming out?
    Seriously GOOD playing and a nice axe to boot! Let's hear (see) some more, Lev! PS... if you can play like that in the closet, you could probably fit on some of the "stages" back here!
