"Hey Derek...Thumbs up! Playing at a speed you're comfortable with is a better strategy than struggling beyond your efficiency to produce pleasant music. Speed will increase naturally as you spend more time behind the wood.…"

"Thanks Mark. I'd love to play a BR160 Adirondack. Mine is Sitka. Your's probably packs more of a wallop than mine."
Daley's Reel

Ken Chapple said… Hi Louis. I'd love to pick! I'm not sure if I'll be at Darrington this year. Our band didn't get booked because we're not Trad enough! However, if we don't have anything else booked, I would love to go!

Steve Alexander said… I've gone vegan and may look at gluten free as well. My daughter has gone that route - it seems to becoming acknowledged as a good health threat. Looking forward to picking with you sometime in 2012!

Stephen Switzer replied to Daniel J Thomack's discussion picks"I have settled on the BlueChip CT55. The BlueChip picks play very smooth and fast, with little pick noise. By the way, I use their thumb picks as well- best I've ever used."
