I did this version up and down the neck; without picks! Ben Eldridge has mentioned he sometimes plays without picks around the house when he is trying something new....Robert

Nicely played Robert..! I think this is the first up the neck break I've heard on this tune..
I play bare finger all the time, I think it gives a smoother tone and no clicking of metal on metal. Bit limiting on volume when out though but the audience at Open Mics (without a mic..!) settles down and listens just the same.
Thanks for posting.....David
