Thanks! The problem with playing over the same backing track all of the time is you get stale. I learned you have to switch it up. When I saw how much improvising solos for various songs improved my playing, I decided it was time to switch things up.

What's funny is that it's completely different...but is it really? I can hear some of my stock licks and phrases, but they are played differently to fit the backing track, so they become "new".

The wah is so much fun. You can make the guitar just scream, make it wail.
