Since the conversation was diverting from the topic of 10cc, I thought I could continue here? I don't want to spam the 10cc thread. So ... What do you mean by "widdly diddly doo's?" Is it riffing or soloing? Is It sweeping? Is djent or related to it? Is it the amount or type of distortion?

I didn't make it through the whole Marc Rizzo video. Flamenco Djent or Salsa Sweeping (or whatever it's called) isn't my thing, sorry. I hope you don't become disjointed by me saying that ... or should I say 'disdjented?'

Anyways, I recently found this video and thought I would share. I'm not saying it's better than Rizzo's song. It's just that the video showcases some of the things I prefer. Guitar playing-wise: I think this is a good example as any of using clean guitar sound. To me it could easily be The Ventures doing a cover of a Mason Williams song but it's her own composition AFAIK.
