Love your lessons. I am working on the main solo in La Grange, lesson #6. "Now I might be mistaken", but I think there is a notation error in bar 18 beat 3 and 4. the pitches are correct but the rhythmic phrasing is reversed between beat 3 and 4, as the notated rhythms are not consistent with your lick-by-lick explanation in the video, and play thru and audio. this is a cool but somewhat difficult lick so it would be good to have it correct from the get go. Am I correct in this or am I missing something on this entirely. If I am correct, is there a way to correct the tab?


Do you ever go back and correct errors in the tab?  thanks for your help. Please keep the lessons coming......


A Haw, haw, haw,

Hi Jim - thanks for the kind words! 


The transcription is indeed correct! Up to speed though, it can be difficult to hear the rhythmic articulation and separation of the notes when it's bouncing back and forth between the 8th and 10th frets on different strings. The higher gain tone doesn't help with this either, so the attack might be lost a bit.


Be sure to use the speed buttons on the left side of the video frame to slow down the faster licks.  That might help a bit to match the performance with the tab.


Hopefully this helps! Let me know how it goes!


Mike
