3 Licks You Should Steal from George Benson 

Thanks Ervin! Glad to be of help!

@@RichieZellon When I get through Volume II, I plan to sign up for the Elite Membership. There's so much great material there that I'd like to explore, particularly the more post bop tonality stuff.

Thanks for sharing, yeah George is a nice cat!

@@RichieZellon Cool, thanks Richie and you're right, George is a nice cat.

Thanks Paul! Love McLaughlin's playing and have done some transcriptions but still not sure if I can do them justice. Some of those lightning fast fusion lines are not my forte. Still, I will probably give it a shot sometime.

@@RichieZellon that would be cool, no rush! You're great as is 👍

Thank you kindly Walter, much appreciated!

@@RichieZellon yes thank you I deeply appreciate it I just have to set aside time 2 study some of the beautiful ideas you have to offer. Thank you so much.

Your very welcome!

Thanks! Yes Peerless is great. This is my 2nd Jazz City. I got it from one of my students who in turn got from you! I now recall I tried to get in touch with you in the past through your Facebook page but never got an answer...don't worry, no hard feelings 😊 Are you still a Peerless dealer?

@@RichieZellon Oops... Well, we can certainly stay in touch now. I did move from LA to Colorado Springs a few years back and some things got lost in the mix. In addition Peerless sold their brand about that time and the guitars became unavailable. They always had issues marketing in the US, so I guess the new people are staying inside South Korea. I love their guitars though. And what bargain on the used market these days! I am really impressed with your lesson presentations. The '3 licks to steal' is clever. Benson, Martino. I already forwarded the links to several people. I did take a break from playing for a while so in my woodshedding endeavors I scoured around for some material to work with. Your little clips were mana from heaven... Yes, I can use transcribe and do all the time, however your choices of what to present are brilliant. These little bits are now in my bag of vocabulary. Let's do stay in touch. I will recommend you when I can...

@@docdoscojazz Thanks Doc! Glad you like the lessons! Sorry to hear about Peerless not being available in the US. What about GuitarsNJazz in New Jersey? I have a few students that purchased them there.

@@RichieZellon Yes, Lou is still selling Peerless. He had a ton of inventory and now he has no competition for selling new guitars. But once they are gone no more in the stores. Peeress did a dump before they changed hands and many are reasonably priced used on Reverb.

Thanks! Will consider doing that in the future.

Love those double stops! I will definitely try to do a lesson on them, hopefully soon.

@@RichieZellon AWESOME!

Yes!

Thx, those are Thomastik Swing 12 (flatwounds).

Hey Peter.... did you see this from my Peerless page?

This is a year old. Never mind. I posted Richie's link on the peerless page the other day

Bernie Holland or Joe Zawfinul

Yes, that's the trademark of a good line!
