    Wow! I’m truly humbled to see my song featured here! Thanks for playing some amazing guitar licks for my track, “Let Me In”, Samurai! But, Jesus, the auto-tune I threw on that tracking demo is horrendous! 😂
    EDIT: For those of you asking, the final track is available here! 😊 🎶

      I too was initially turned of by the autotune, but I'm admittedly quite hostile towards that style in general.
      You sound so much better without it man.
      All the best to you.

      Watery would be relatively loose and with not echo-y, but kind of strumming with some good natural reverb. Dry on the other hand would be more cut, and less space between progressions, whether it be by muting or by simply starting another chord or note. As you can probably tell by now, it is pretty difficult to describe musical lingo, its more of a feeling

You demoed an amp that your Dad made for you and I had just lost my Dad. You gave credit to your parents and other people that helped you to become the person and musician that you are today. So I don't like pop country but I do love some of the old stuff and acts like Chris Stapleton. So I know you can play anything but when you pick up a guitar by yourself no videos or people in the room what is your go to style that makes you happy? Love your your videos.
