Hi all, I figure that even though I can read tab, I want to learn by visual instruction also. Anyone have a recommendation? I've played guitar for a whole lot of years, but this is a different animal all together.

Shane Speal lessons online here at CBN, as well as Knotlenny's lessons, then Keni Lee Burgess CD / DVDs, Mike Snowden's online lessons, Patrick Curley's online and DVD lessons...all are excellent. Contact the individuals above directly here at CBN.

I know what you mean by a different animal. I'm still having a hard time giving up standard tuning. Even on three strings.

Thanks Ron, I'll check them out !

Blue Rat, I'm trying to memorize the neck's pentatonic scales (fret patterns), rather than note for note, if that makes any sense. Mines a 4 string because I do finger style and I wouldn't want one of my fingers to feel left out LOL

Try Red Dog,

I love Shanes videos, I also bought 2 of Kenny Lees videos of CBG and I was playing a song by the end of my first sit down with them. Kenny is very talented and professional. I also love anything Red dog does. Start with the free stuff and move towards what else is out there. It is all good and fun...matt

Try Justin Johnson's stuff on YouTube... Walkin' Blues... Rollin' and Tumblin'
