@@SimonMorelguitar Steve Cropper often plays unexpectedly simple phrases and I figure out what he does, but it is often what makes the songs “soulfulest” (as Otis said somewhere), along with the other MG’s parts. Many, many thanks for the great lesson video for the song I’ve been listening to for more than 25 years.

Seems everyone I know is in some stage with this particular song. They all play it on acoustic guitar. Would you address that just a little. Does the acoustic guitar limit what you can do and how well you can do it?
Hey Patrick, thanks for watching. There's an acoustic on the original track and the electric takes the lead lines like I demo here. You could totally play these lead lines on acoustic if you wanted to. Hope that helps. All the best, Simon
Nice one. Thank you Simon. I presume that's the BOSS WL20 transmitter plugged in to your Strat? How do you rate it? Any detectable latency or dropout, etc?
Hi Larry, Thanks for watching. I only recently bought the WL20, but it has been excellent so far. I originally bought it purely for my teaching room. I have a screen one side of the room and the music stand on the other and was constantly rolling over cables when teaching. I'd been thinking about the cheaper non-brand ones (I was doubtful) and then Boss put this out. I figured it would be good if it was made by Boss. I have never have any drop outs or latency issues at home. I've done maybe 10-15 gigs with it so far and it's been solid. I have a friend of mine who bought one who hasn't been so impressed gig-wise, but I've got to say this is the best bit of gear I've bought for ages. All the best Simon
