Thanks for the positive feedback, still haven't got one of the chord changes quick enough.
The guitar was the Carvin in the picture, I normally use amp sims inside GarageBand for recording. I have use Amplitude III Fender sim.
I also have a ES335 but i am always worried somebody is going to knock it over so I generally play my carvin.
The amp is a blues Jr. Nos and for the money sounds great and is easy to move around, louder than you think.
Well ready for the next lesson Stormy Monday, just in time playing with a friend next week.
