"American Music Shop" for sure. It was the highlight of my week. The guests were great, but Mark O'Connor, Jerry Douglas, and Brent Mason in the house band... Are you kidding me?

Great example, I'll definitely be studying that.

And maybe Tom had had an extra glass of iced tea that day or something but he really kicks the volume up through the first half of that solo. Love t ...

Nicely done there. Cool stuff!

Just a note from recent personal experience: My Marlen (early 80s S10 pull-release) uses those little plastic "bullets" along with set-screw shaft collars on strings with more than one raise ...

I guess my father wouldn't have cared for the original very much back than. I don't care for this, now that I'm on the other side of the generation gap. Shocked

Just in case someone finds this while looking for Marlen parts, that's being discussed in another topic:

Sure enough, that was it. Gone now. Thanks again!

Thanks Greg. More is better.

I'm still wondering about that "2A" on the 6th string in the 5th measure though. An A pedal doesn't affect that string, does it?

And I was just browsing th ...

Thanks for the super-easy transaction, Jim!

I got a couple of pieces from Lenny last week. He mentioned his health situation as Glenn says, but in my case at least he replied quickly and shipping was very prompt. And the parts look great.

Thanks, that's good stuff Greg. Just scanning through it looks like something I could definitely use for honky-tonk and swing comping. I'll work on it for sure.

Oh: Is there a typo in measure 5, on ...
