Your right that it is simpler than it sounds. It's really just a 12 bar blues! The barre chords definitely are a workout for you hands. When we practiced it the first time, my hand was pretty sore after 1/2 hour. Fortunately may stamina playing is much better now. That's one of those songs that there is just no way to cheat - you gotta play those barre chords.

Sounds like you/your teacher are really working hard to get the whole timing issue nailed. Good luck with that also. re: PRS - as ur out testing them out try to find a model "245" to try. Real short scale ( 24.5" ) means u can wire it up with 10's and still get really easy fluid bends. Quick and slinky.

T-Care

One day after the band thing is done I hope to go guitar shopping. I'll definitely check the various PRS models out. For now, my strat is treating me pretty well thankfully! It now has the esteemed honor of being the first electric guitar I brought to play out.
