Derryl Gabel: Funnels transcription and Skype lessons available

Hi Guitar Friends, a few months ago I transcribed Allan Holdsworth's tune "Funnels" from the REH '92 instructional video. If you don't know who Allan Holdsworth is he's undoubtedly one of the best guitarist to ever live. This was one of two tunes which were not transcribed in the book "Just for the Curious" that accompanied the video. I painstakingly went through and transcribed all the guitar parts ( the comping and the solo ) in meticulous detail, slowing down the video to get all the fingerings as accurate as possible. Not only that, I got with Chad Wackerman ( the drummer in the video ) and Steve Hunt (the keyboard player ) to make sure I had the time signatures and harmony correct! I transcribed the score in Power Tab but also have it in Guitar Pro 6 as well as PDF versions. Here is a video of the tune

I worked so hard on transcribing this that I injured my index finger on my right hand with all the mouse clicking. It actually still has not fully recovered.

Here is what a student of mine had to say about the transcription.
From Jon Hepworth ( brilliant guitarist from the UK )
"an outstanding achievement! must be the best quality tab of his playing anywhere by anyone, you should feel very proud!"

I would like to share this transcription with you for a donation of any amount.

To make a donation for the transcription just click on this link Donation

Once the donation is sent go to the "Lessons" page of my website to download the transcription files. It will be near the bottom of the page.

If you need help understanding the harmony of the tune, learning how to play it, applying what you learn, achieving the technique to execute the chords and the solo, please consider booking a webcam lesson with me on skype. There's not many players out there that understand what Allan is doing and he doesn't offer lessons so this is an alternative. I don't have any interest in making a DVD on Allan or his tunes. I would rather teach this stuff one on one in person (skype).

I currently have some openings for students if you are interested. Shoot me an email to let me know. My rate is $30 a half hour. I'll need to know the best days and times for you, your time zone, and skype ID.

Thanks for your support!
