Marv Sobolesky commented on Dan Miller's group Flatpick Teachers"I have been playing guitar since the late 60s but really got hooked when I heard Norman Blake on the radio in the early 70s.

Alan Aleksander said… - Hi Marv,
I just wanted to say Hi. I'm a Flatpick L member, although mostly just a reader. I really enjoyed your stream on Flatpick L about playing with a softer touch. It has helped me to improve my playing. You always seem to have some good feedback on other issues too. I'm in a Bluegrass band in CA, sponsor a bluegrass jam in my area and of course I'm working hard to raise the level of my pickin. Thanks for the tips.

- Hey Marv,
Thanks for the comment. By the way does the softer approach technique apply to the right hand (flatpicking hand) as well. I saw a comment by someone recently about how the faster they pick the softer they hold the pick. Do you find this to be true?
Thanks

- Thanks again for the sage advice. I'll have to check out the Kaufman DVD.

"Thanks Mike. I have to prove to myself that I can play the material as written but once I've done that I start to allow myself some leeway to have fun and drop in my own bits. There's not too much space to do that in SK's version of…"
