    Wonderful content expertly presented. What more could we ask for? Best wishes for 2020 :)

    What is special about your lessons is the right mix of technique , melody and theory. All too often TH-cam presenters avoid theory ,loudly announcing that "there will be no boring tedious theory (snarling as they say that word). Instead they give us worthless 7-9, 10-12, 5-7 dots that could not be less helpful if you tried. Your mix is spot on and that's the reason I joined your Patreon.

    Hey Brother, thank you for your lesson, I am 78 years old and still bending strings and chasing tone. Now that is a beautiful guitar, I do have a Gibson Tobacco Burst standard, but I really love your Les. I have played Fenders most of my playin years,since 1962/63 ,surf music in California's west coast. I first started with Jimmy Reed . Thanks again .

    Way back in the mid 70s a spotty little apprentice found an old copy of some music paper, in it was a review of a gig featuring a young Eric Clapton, who of course the apprentice had heard of, one line stood out "he's as good as BB King " who? The rest, as they say, is history
    At the risk of kissing arse, I'm showing this lesson, because of your teaching skills, to my grandson
    I sound like I'm using my feet after you, keep up the good work

My opinion is it really does suit your expressive playing style. Please, more 12 bar blues if you can. You are appreciated. PS I wonder if you could tell us what guage strings you use?

    Funny fact. Lampa ( a like in ah in Sarah - lampah? ) in Polish stands for lamp. But also for valve amp. Wzmacniacz lampowy (lamp amplifier), or lampa for short.
    Guess that makes me a fan of lamps as well.

    Another stellar lesson, Adrian. The studio revamp looks great. I have a burning question however. When you plan out your video tutorials, how do decide on which particular guitar do you pull from your quiver to instruct from? Is it the Tele? Is it the Les Paul? Perhaps the Gretsch?
