Wayne Sorbelli here at my Island Guitar Key West Music Lesson & Video Studio. I'm getting ready and running through rough drafts of Led Zeppelin's EPIC "Moby Dick" for a lesson request a student made of me.

I'm doing the main riff using a pick and no slide. I do incorporate the glass slide during the drum solo part where normally there is no guitar — making it more like an episode of "Whole Lotta Love's" orgasmic middle section and interlude.

I was picturing fishing and hooking on to a Moby Dick type whale — through my playing I was trying to relay my feelings of battling the big one. It's all tensions and release. It's all the blues in my playing — no matter how rock I try to get!

I pulled out my old Gibson USA Les Paul 1994 Custom just to get reacquainted. Playing through a solid state Roland Micro Cube on the Brit Combo amp setting with very little delay on for the picking sections — then cut the delay back to zero but kept the gain on ten for the middle slide trippy part.

Any questions, feel free to contact me. Most of the amps and gear I use for videos are for sale.
