Lovethat Gibson and Charlie Christian.. I think I have an old book on his music now that i think about it..

Hey what you doing my guitar! Wait I just checked, my 1959 ES 125 is in its case. Whew, I got nervous. It is the best sounding and playing guitar ever. Thank you Damian for a great lesson.

The world is a better place with Damian in it.Thanks Bud!

Hi Damian, I am a huge fan of your format. And, your way of playing is very recognizeable in a recording. At the moment I keep your recordings of 'Let's Rattle' by D D Verni in a heavy rotation in my car. And thus, I'm wondering why you don't do special on that album. I almost missed that it is out, as it wasn't on display here in europe. Just an idea! ... Have fun in the next year and stay healthy

Hey Damian, I have a question, if you have only 30-45 minutes to practice and your an intermediate player, does it make more sense to learn and practice an entire song with solos for that time or spend it working on alternate picking, legato, and down strumming drills? I've been working on Johnny B. Goode for many months and it's coming along nicely but I haven't been able to work on my picking drills. After I get Johnny B. Goode down, I'm wondering if I should go back to the picking drills or learn another song. Speed has been a challenge for me in the past.

It was so killer that I stopped dead and leant it straight away, it took about fifteen minutes to get up to speed and store it.

I use this lick quite a bit. IMO this particular lick seems to bring a higher energy to not only the audience, but whatever band you may be playing with, you may get to the point where you're pushing your band mates as well into what I consider, another level. These are the small, but far from insignificant riffs, you have to pay attention to. Because these types of riffs could possibly get a pay raise for the band! Not to mention the GURLS❤❤❤❤❤
