[@funkifreshmusic]

[@JustinHenricks]

Hey there, I actually just recreated it in Ableton !

[@cartick9537]

@@JustinHenricks hey man, any chance you could share the backing track? Would love to jam to it!

[@drek4007]

Awesome ! Where did you find the backing track ??

[@JustinHenricks]

I made it!

[@longchia89]

I wish it can be notes by notes. Like beginning g, c, d, eflat after that i get lost how you play it

[@DillonHughes]

Do you have a backing track available?

[@JustinHenricks]

Yes! justinhenricks.gumroad.com/l/what-they-do-backing-track

[@ghostaga]

Im searching everywhere and cant find any infor on Spanky being the one who played the guitar part for this, even on the wiki it doesn't show him listed in the production of that song. How do you know its Spanky playing?👀👀

[@JustinHenricks]

Good question! It is a bit of a mystery, but I thought first and foremost it definitely sounds like Spanky.. and discogs does actually credit Spanky on the track as well.

[@troyhouse4852]

What amp or software are you using? Sounds sweet!

[@MegaArratia]

omg

[@lasauce7593]

how do you call this guitar?

[@yogicbeats]

what would you call it?

[@niknarg8150]

You are too fast.
Unfortunately you don’t explain note by note.
Your skills are mindblowing
