Posted: Thu Dec 26, 2019 9:58 pmChuck!!! I just posted my own version of that on FaceBook! I even prefaced it with saying that I had never heard it on the guitar, and here you are! Mine is enough different that I wouldn't be duplicating you. However, mine is only audio that I uploaded to SoundCloud first. Yours will be more interesting to watch. You did a nice job. Thanks for posting this!

Posted: Thu Dec 26, 2019 11:35 pmThanks, Chuck. There were two main differences:
1) I did mine on my Fender Strat and yours was with a nylon string guitar.
2) Mine was more of a jazz version and sort of modeled after the way I've heard it on the piano.
A third possible difference was that yours was cleaner and executed better. I always related to Jerry Reed when he said that he was more of a "guitar thinker" than a "guitar player'. I don't aspire to much more than sharing my thoughts. I'm not saying that my playing "sucks" but so many are much better!
