I had a lot of fun putting this video together of myself playing John Knowles' / Chet's arrangment of Vincent. I thought some of you might like it. Appreciative long time board viewer - first time poster. - GaryB
That was really great Gary!! Is that a Carvin guitar you are playing? I really like the tone you get. Send us some more videos soon.

Thanks guys. It is a Carvin NS-1 which is a synth guitar. The backup track was produced by having the Carvin set to play the "Nashville Strings" sound through a Roland GR-20. I just muted the 5th & 6th strings and played the tune as I would normally. Too much fun! - Gary
