You guys should check out Ney's latest clip. He absolutely shreds on acoustic! I plan on purchasing his picking DVD when it is finally finished. Whether you feel he is arrogant or not, the man knows h ... |

Nobody? They're good books, but I'm sure others will get more out of them than I. |

I've got a copy of each book, and would like to sell them. They're in very good condition (barely been used) and the CDs are both fine. I live in Sydney, Australia, and am happy to post them anywhere. |

Hey Jazz Fusion Guy, the only times I ever see you post (mostly over at the Shawn Lane forum), it is just to advertise. If your going to do it, at least put it in the Open Discussion forum. |

Do not have time to post at length, but there are two very good things you could do.
1. Transcribe! Wes Montgomery, Grant Green, and Kenny Burrell are good places to start.

I was not assuming that you do want to be a 'copy' on any of those players, just accomodating for the possibility. That is a very noble thing wanting to play music for you own and others joy, so why d ... |

I hate to be the token naysayer, but that is SOFT-CORE compared to the footage of Bireli Lagrene as a kid on his DVD. Think a kid (of similar age) with technique of a much higher order, playing on an ... |
