You might be hearing a Zendrive type of sound because I bumped up the mid-range quite a bit on the EQ.

I'm going to try it this weekend. I think the solo in Lincoln Brewster's Let the Praises Ring is a pretty good open string work out on the high E string including some triplet action at the end. I can't help but think of Riverdance when I see it played live though :) What did you use to generate that tab format? I have a lick/exercise that involves some open strings but it's more to keep up hammer ons/pull offs/string skipping precision going from high E to low E and back to high E string. Thanks!
