ok, than that was just a missunderstanding; i never considered about putting a few riffs together and call them mine, but when it comes to copying solos i should after i learned it exactly like the original, create my own version, right? And to the topic "i don´t cover copy anything from other guitarist" i have found a nice statement from Lukather: "If you always copy one guitarist, that´s larcency, but if you copy many guitarists, that´s science! I actually play almost only borrowed licks"!

What do you think of this statement??( I have this statement at home in german, so i don´t know if it has the 100% same meaning how i translated it)
