I grew up many years playing guitar, so often when I play my Yamaha keyboard, I gravitate towards guitar sounds.

Here is a YouTube demo of me playing the solo section of some of the songs in my repertoire. Please listen and tell me what you think:

Hi Larry

I enjoyed it tremendously. Do you use a sustain pedal? I never did get the hang of the portamento wheel, but I can pick up a few licks from from your video.

Very well done. Thanks for sharing.
Bernie

Thanks. Yes, I use a sustain pedal. For extra difficulty, I am playing in arranger mode - bending while playing chords with the left hand.

Awesome job Larry! I've spent some time in the company of Don Mason who is probably the best around. Your work is right up there with his. Since I am a pianist, I approach my playing from the piano. But the S 950 has such great guitars that I've started looking into the way you guys phrase your lines. I'm having a good time with it. Keep up the good work!
