    Must Have DVDs and Books

    More for theory...too many guys can play squirly but within the confines of boring harmony imo...This is the first and I feel the quickest way to distinguish yourself. As far as the proverbial magic bullet, there isn't one in my experience. The one book I always end up coming back to: Mick...

    9 String Jazz

    From his site I wonder what he's rolling with for a tuning. Probably a major 2nd interval on strings 2-5/in that vicinity? Edit: Nvm...from the gear section, I was way off. I'm impressed how he gets those lenny breau/chet atkins harp runs with this. No low stuff, just a bunch of redundant...
