Ruh-Roh, my be in over me head

Not sure what you mean, but I don't like the way this guy "shreds."  It sounds sloppy and off like he's not doing it properly.  He's not touching the strings  enough  when he's shredding imho and it just sounds like he's touching them enough to  hear  that he did manage to touch them, but that's it. 

Dunno if that makes sense or if anyone else can hear that, but ya, I wasn't impressed with his lead work.  I only say that because the result is: it fails to let me see and hear the guitar really shine and do its thing.

Some nicely done melodic soloing probably would have helped the guitar shine imho.

I liked his playing and the unique sound a gretsch has but wouldn't give ten cents for that background noise..whatever it was
