Let's make a time maybe with Bob too, to get together and thrash out a few tunes before we hit the HBI? I've finished my new 3 string slider and I'm really happy with it. I'd like to show it to you. My Can-jo worked out good too.

Hello Richard! I was in the Music Plant yesterday and Doug said you were in the shop, great to hear you are back. I hope the trip north was OK and the new grandchild came into this world with a CBG in hand ....LOL

Happy B-day! You can never have too much fun. LOL
I will be in Canada (Montreal) for a few days myself to visit a friend. If I ever thought of moving, Canada would be a good choice.
As for Edley's book, go slow. There is a real lot of information in that book. Make sure you try to find everything you read in the book on the guitar. Exploration and reseach is the key. Break down a song you know and try to understand the relationships between the notes and chords you are playing. Take a song you know and arrange it in another key. Thank you for your comment. Enjoy.

Richard,
love the boat pics!
Thanks for the comment on my video awhile back - In response to your question: sorry I'm not really sure sure what the exact tuning was, to be honest with you.

I always tune in a "D - A - D' interval, but I do it by ear and it sorta ends up in whatever key seems to strike my fancy at the time. I call it "Say You See" tuning (for the third, fifth and sixth notes of the Star Spangled Banner). o-oh SAY can YOU SEE.

Nice pictures! I've seen your boat around here, I sail a 1965 O' Day Mariner. Mostly on the East Side of Quadra and Desolation Sound.
