Good work, nice sense of timing, even without accompaniment. I was just thinking how some of his licks on ADTL are my favorite, of all time. What amp you using here?

Thanks! Fuman was even better at getting the phrases exactly right. Miss him.

Amp is a little Vox Cambridge -- tube/solid-state hybrid. I'm actually having problems with it at the moment -- goes haywire past a certain volume. I'm not a techie, so I've gotta take 'er in.

Too bad you're in dc, some good techies in bmore. I'm getting my tele refretted, you have any experience with your own guitars? If it plays like new as they say I have no prob shelling out a few hundred.

Fuman definitely could nail Keith and Taylor both. So glad we got the vids of you guys on yt. A little easier than playing along to stp..
