Thank you very much for your encouraging and constructive comments. I enjoy researching material as a means of learning. Having the ability to arrange and present the information accurately as an instructional video helps to clarify my understanding even deeper. It is definitely a pleasure to share this information with friends who share the same interest. I am glad to hear you enjoyed the presentation. Thanks again for your feedback. Enjoy.

Thank you dg for your comment. It took me some time to understand basic theory too and even more time to see how directly applicable it is to improving your playing. Take your time and absorb a lttle at a time. Eventually it will click. Enjoy.

Randy, even though I have way too many slides floating around the house, your mojobone is one of my three favorities to use regularly. The others are a brass 1970s slide made by Mighty Mite and a port wine bottle glass slide made by my friend Greg at www.bottleneckstore.com
