I've had a 2000 Adi topped HD28-LSV for a while now and my mortal ears dont detect any muddiness in the guitar. Maybe in my playing but thats another story. There have been a few articles in FGM that specifically address the legend of Clarence/Ton...

Tell us more about yourself (place a Bio here if you wish)
Jed Clark started playing guitar when he was only nine. His parents bought him a starter guitar and took him to a local church where the youth minister taught him basic chords. In about 4 months, the youth minister suggested that maybe Jed needed a more advanced teacher, saying, "He's teaching me stuff now." Since no teachers were readily available, lessons weren't started again until Jed moved with his parents to a different town three years later. At age twelve, he began lessons with Chuck Hicks at Harding University. Chuck has a strong background in the field of music, particularly in the areas of performance and stringed instruments. Chuck began teaching Jed finger-style guitar.

Somewhere around age 14, Jed decided to learn Roberto Dalla Vecchia's version of Blackberry Blossom. He has since moved more in the direction of flatpicking guitar. Artists who have influenced Jed are: Tim O'Brien, Sam
Bush, Jerry Douglas, Mark O'Conner, Bela Fleck, Edgar Myer, Bryan Sutton, and Scott Vestal, just to name a few.

Hey Jed..thanks for the info. I have some friends that can do that, but its good to know Melvin could do that too. Best of luck with your picking. Have your heard of Jake Jolliff? A great mando player. I've played with him in a gospel band serveral years ago and now he's at Berklee in Boston. Look him up on Youtube.

Thank you for the quick responce there Bud, I'll try e-mailing Rick 1st , if no luck I'll get the ph# fr you. I was going to ask him about the capo he was using and if it works with a Martin D-28 due to the "diamond" at the base of the tuning head. Again, thank you.

Hi Jed, I'm using the Wegen "Bluegrass" pick most of the time, though I've got a "Gypsyjazz" model and a "FatTone" I'll break out depending on the sound/attack I'm going for, or the guitar/style I'm playing.
