Great video Nick, again! I'll have to work some to develop the speed and fluidity you play these with!
I have many records with 1 or 2 songs scratched beyond repair from trying to learn the songs... LOL all my favorite songs are scratched up!

Jimmy Page on a Les Paul - perfect! The guitar is the ultimate instrument for 'licks', and especially those with rhythmic attack. If I could steal some of that I would.😊
