      Wow thank you for saying that! Ultimately that is my goal, the spirit, above all. The “muse” of music I like to say. the “ic” being the technique, etc should be in service of the muse !

    Incredible arrangement: one guitar sounding like two. A true master of the instrument.

    To be able to keep the walking tempo going in the background, whilst playing the melody is impossible…yet…you did it perfectly.
    This one made me cry…

    Hi Erik, This is the sweetest rendition of Stardust I've ever heard. On a par with the great man himself ( Hoagy) .... Thank you so much for sharing and for the pleasure your playing brings. All the best, David Ambrose.

      Wow David, that means a lot. One of my favorite tunes, and there are some really lovely recordings out there. The way I play it continues to change, but I’m really glad to hear you found some inspiration in this little snapshot :)

      Don’t give up. I’ve been playing for over 20 years and I still want to quit when I hear other people. You can write music that is just as hard for other people to play.

      I can play about 20 jazz pieces as played by specific artist, for example Tony Motolla's version of Stardust or Barney Kessel's Love is Here to Stay.. and also created 3 pieces of my own yet indeed.. rearrangements are hardcore difficult. I managed to play What a Wonderful World of Louis Armstrong but it's practically just the same chords. And that was not easy either.

      @@garyrosenak3199 thanks ! No apology needed. I don’t have this guitar any more, but I think you’re right that this was jumbo fret wire. I do have jumbo frets on a couple other old Gibsons of mine and I do like it ! Not sure exactly what it does but the jumbo frets to me feel easier to play.
