I don't think anyone ever stops learning how to play guitar. There's always something more you can do.

Smooth playing! I feel like vocals would be great on this track, so you should give that another try, in my opinion!

Absolute great one man performance. Keep on rocking.

You sound pretty decent but it also sounds like you look at the fretboard - don't. It will make you sound like you are ever so slightly pausing to look at the chord before you play it. Just grab it. Practice grabbing random chords while you watch TV. Nobody masters the guitar we all just learn new things every day.

It's great to see you back Leafo. Thanks by the way for making the Streak Club 2017, though I could manage to stay past the spring. It's great to see so many familiar faces back !!!

I really loved the tune. Not a guitarrist myself, but it sound like the kind of indie/alt-rock nineties stuff I've always loved. I guess you sliced it a bit in Renoise, which is impressive because it doesn't sound like "tracked music" at all.

Much respect to your endeavour. I should really really work on my (terrible) playing skills.

As I said, I really loved this piece and how you obtained a (not that) simple sound yet punchy and clear. Looking forward to hear your next tune.

Welcome back for this 2018 !!!
