Hi and thanks for the responses.

ManXcat, here's the link to the lessons (I can't hyperlink for some reason. Apologies.):

This lesson had a strange effect on me. It both inspired and demoralised me. The fact that I feel so close and yet so far to being able to play it is incredibly frustrating. I also believe that because it is just out of reach technically, that is the reason I'm not getting the phrasing right. I can play each part correctly but not all together and only about 50% of the time. Oddly, the more I practised it the worse I got at it and that has resulted in me going from playing around 2 hours per day to not touching my guitar for around a week now. I'm scared I'll keep going backwards.

Thanks for the link to Anders' lesson. I'll give it a go today and it'll hopefully give me the little confidence boost I need to get back in the saddle.

👍
