Truly awesome stuff Brent! I’ve all the time loved blues music and blues licks since I used to be a kid. I just found out about the entire CBG activity and am just starting to learn on my new 3 string box. I’ve tried full size 6 string guitars several times but never improved enough as a result of such short stubby fingers. Now I have lots more hope.
Big thanks for all these great riffs Brent! … Jon
