This is a great 1-4-5 instrumental that is built for SPEED! There are a lot of forward rolls in this arrangement, and I know you'll have a blast with it!

I keep losing the timing when I add the backup. Does anyone count this out loud or is that just me?

Take the capo off and play it in open G a few times, then put it back. Helped me hear it.

Great question. That's a slide going into the B part — I play it as a slide but a hammer-on works fine if that's cleaner for you. Do what sounds right.

Same here at first. What fixed it for me was practicing that measure by itself for a week, no B part at all.
