Thanks for the great video. I learnt that I had been playing one not wrong for years (3rd phrase of the B section).. on the other hand, I think you have a mistake on your transcription. It’s in the 1st phrase after the 2 x 16th notes on the 17th fret (starting on low G).. the last three notes of that phrase (to me) sound like D, C#, B (you have transcribed it as D, C, B its at 13:31 I think).. what do you think?
By the way your performance on your musicman bongo sounds great!

why not analyze harmonically everything else except the first half of the first bar?
