Happy Birthday Shawn and Guys we have a Treasure in our Group Now
I want yall to welcome @Bill Oliver Bill knew Shawn when he was a kid and Bill was a Rhodes Scholar and he and his frat brothers knew Shawn was a young genius. Bill is the one that introduced Shawn to Holdsworths Music and in fact is the one that took Shawn to see him play and Bill said after that very night Shawn chaged everything about his playing within a few weeks. Bill was Shawns closest friend over the years and we have been friends for about 30 years and it is an honor to have him be a part of this community and he knows a lot about Shawn so the Q&A section, feel free to tag him! Welcome Brother! We have another huge surprise coming into the group as well hopefully later today!

Welcome @Anthony Worrall ! Cheers guys. We really appreciate the work. All this stuff will get lost or forgotten otherwise.
I just uploaded a new Gem for Premium Members!
Check out the Vault Yall! I have Shawn Lane playing The Thrill is Gone by BB King with The Willeys! If yall are on here in the free tier you gotta check out our premium tier yall! It's only $350 per year or $49 per month and that is locked in even when we raise our rates. Its cheaper than any Guitar Lessons anywhere and Sid and I both go live on here and will walk you through anything and we have all the Masterclasses so far plus amazing coursework in Intervals, Scales, all kinds of stuff and Im always adding stuff. Join us on the dark side yall and be one of the cool kids! You want to be a cool kid right? lol @Frank Vela do you have this one?

Ha that was freaking monstrous. Thanks Jimmy! Its always a blessing to see what Shawn does over pop/blues songs. Its so inspiring. I think people get lost in the speed sometimes, I know I used to and probably still do :). Think of the gold mine Shawn provides here: you can take any lick and slow it down into a melody by itself. Each one of these is a masterclass waiting to be unlocked.

@Frank Vela Drools over the thought of early Greg Howe and Ritchie Kotzen vids for fingerings :). Thanks for all you do Frank; seeing how these players execute is everything when you transcribe! Cheers.
Basic Finger and hybrid Picking
This video is a response to member @John D I decided to make a short about it and will go into more detail later in some coursework.

Thanks Jimmy! I never use my pinky when I hybrid pick. Guess I should train it too :). Never thought of doing classical picking on the electric. Thought that was just an amazing Sid thing! Cheers.

Awesome Jimmy! I was under the impression he picked every note in his pent passages but you are using legato. Thats freaking awesome as you can get all sorts of accents with the plucks and picked notes. Can you do a transcription in the future, hand written if its easier, showing the plucks as it was hard to see on the video. Only if you have time as I've been experimenting with picking the shapes and using the middle and ring fingers to grab the string skips in the pent sequences. Thanks so much! Cheers.

@Jimmy Hudson Ha I haven't checked the pents out yet, see ya caught me :). Damn picking those is so damn hard. I have been trying to do swybrid picking to alleviate the string jumps and cross picking on sequencing the pents. Thanks for the almost immediate reply. I really appreciate it. Hope you guys are warm now. Its snowing here again so its a good day to practice.
