      ''Very nice slow bluesy playing Will. The pitch seems a little off of some of the bends.''

      ''Chromatic is hard to learn for me ,you seem to have it down nicely!''
         --Bro.Bob

      ''You are playing chromatically! But it ain't easy -- and it doesn't sound easy, which is where you need to end up, I think. Hats off for stepping-up to the challenge.''

      ''12th position? Is that correct? Your sure to get to the head of the pack if you keep pushing yourself this way. Not your best but understandably so. Well done just the same.''

      ''Harp needed to be a bit further up in the mix. I cannot critique you on the over bends, over blows and so on, but it sounded cool. Smooth and mellow, just needed to be a bit stronger with the sound.''
         --MoCheeks

      Pig in a Poke

         --Rick

      Nothing More to Me
      ''Can't say much about the 2/3rds bend as my ear isn't that well trained. I can say that you did wrap this BT in a mood all your own. And you did it with percision and dignity.''
