    Check out my process for using four and half other solos of mine to write the guitar solo.

      Thank you my man! My solo was easily inspired after hearing your awesome arrangement. Hope we do another someday.

    I think I’ve said it before but when I was a teen TBS was such an influence on my and the music I loved. Now I’m my early 30s trying to relearn guitar it’s so amazing to get an insight into what you do and how you think and the love you have for music. Thank you for everything you do man. You’re adding a bit of love to the world and it’s amazing.

    Love it Fred! Keep up the great work.
    Ps. My Apple Music suggested playlist has been playing loads of Lilito’s brilliant songs lately. I was amazed by her sound - did some Googling, almost spat my drink out when I realised who she was. She’s the Lily from the guitar 🤯

    I thought I had caught all the references in the solo, but I missed one! I really liked the story about the Gibson endorsement. Those kind of behind the scenes stories really appeal to me for some reason. They're really fun to hear about.

      Yeah, I have a story about how I lost Gibson as well. haha, I'll have to tell that one later.

    Such genius guitar playing. Thank you for sharing this. I love when you dive into the music theory behind your work as well. Really helps me since I’m starting to learn music theory on guitar and am a big fan of your music so I love playing your stuff!
    Thank you Fred!

    My girlfriend and I saw you and Alex perform at Shaker's Pub! So many great acts opened but The Color Fred stole the show at the end no doubt. Alex's "Liar" video is how I found out about the mini tour. I love what both of you are doing on your respective RUclips channels, and thanks for the solo breakdown and sharing the thoughts behind it.

    What happened with the Gibson endorsement? I’d buy a signature SG with your name on it 😍…. Can we have a rundown of your SGs?
