His website is cool, has a lot of free stuff, and the pay for stuff is reasonable. He's also very accessible, and will quickly reply to emails for info/help. |

Location: Brighty in Blighty | It's cool cos I only know one tune in Open G so this is a nice excuse to use it. These days I seem to hang out mostly in DADGAD and DADGF#D.
I've now transcribed The Rose into Guitar Pro ;)
I did promise myself not to learn anything new until I have the album done but this is so nice I have to do it. Plus Working On The New Rail Road is the other open G tune and that has to be polished for the album so that works out pretty well. |
