I actually like to see people play what works for them, what feels good, and what fits the gig. It's called playing music. Well done.

Thanks for that. I'm of that view as well, but I notice across many sites, people can get a bit preoccupied about what is "correct" or not.

Lol I totally feel you on the B-bar chord and moving up the neck

Good job. Try a bit of chorus effect like Reggie used on the track. Cheers

As I say at the start, I'm not playing this 100% correctly, but it's the way I play it and it works for me. Here are two really good guitar lessons where the arrangement pretty close to the record and sheet music: Marty: kzbin.info/www/bejne/rKaunWhtmbBsarM Mark Zabel: kzbin.info/www/bejne/gKvQeK2Qq5aImpo

Too much talk. No action.
