thanks for posting - very nice  :bgrin:

...really like the finger style picking

Please tell me the chord progressions you use

How about doing ' Time in a Bottle ' for us ?  or ' I Got a Name ' ?

A closer view of the fretboard while you are playing would be nice - so I can learn from what you are doing.

Quotepart 2  I had to simplify, cause I can't move my fingers that fast!....

WHAT  :? :mad:   you could not play Jim's guitar part and Maury's guitar part on your one guitar at the same time ?
I'm really disappointed in you....I'll bet Pete Huttlinger could do it.... :humour:

Actually, I really like the way you have played this 2 guitars song on one guitar.
Thanks for the tab link. I'll check it out.

How close are you to having 'Time in a Bottle ' or " I've Got a Name ' ready to post ?
well.....I'm waiting.... :whistling: :whistling:   :bgrin:
