I have a crazy work schedule but I will try to record an additional video soon to help with the finer points.

That is a really useful demonstration. Very well thought out and superbly presented. You will have everyone on CBN playing that.

  Thanks for posting .  I 've picked up a few things I may be able to use .  Mostly I'm getting an idea of just how good you are !!   I've tried the piedmont style but can't seem to do it .  I can't seem to keep playing the same rhythm on the top two strings ...and play a different rhythm for the melody on the third string . The melody doesn't always fall on the down beat of one of the other two strings..... right ?  That's harder than patting my head and rubbing my tummy !!  Any advice ?   Please don't tell me to shut up and quit playing guitar . I really like it ....... and I'm tired of people saying that .   Thanks !!!!
