You got to dig it to dig it, you dig?

Been awhile since I posted anything guitar wise. Took a break from playing been on a a bit of a journey - mind, body spirit all of it, trying to keep my sanity and get in better shape ✌️ A little rusty but felt great. Realized I need guitar for sanity 🤣

Working on upgrading my physical, mental and spiritual well being. Changed the way I eat, got way more active, outside as much as possible, meditate etc…. Able to do pull-ups for first time in years. I’ll take it as an old timer over 6 decades in…

Late night jam working on some tones for upcoming recording. Going a lil nasty with some extra grease here 🎸

Studio session pushed back til next week so woodshed time. Slide and fretting fingers together seamless. Not something I have in my bag yet, hear it in my head but not able to throw down in the flow. Hoping to change that soon. What you working on?#slideguitar #guitar
