- Favorite Flatpickers
- This is hard. I'm more of a rhythm player myself, so I guess I pay more attention to that when listening to guitar players. I feel the only way to have a successful Bluegrass band is to have a great rhythm guitar player. So, I would have to say that some of my favorite guitar players are Del McCoury, Tony Rice and Dan Tyminski.
- Favorite Flatpicking Tunes
- I like pickin' Big Sandy River and Rebecca right now.
- Favorite Guitars
- 1957 D-21 Martin and 1979 HD-28 Martin
- Tell us more about yourself (place a Bio here if you wish)
- I'm the leader and Rhythm guitar player for Acoustic Blue. I do play lead as well, but not a whole lot. I pride myself in my solid bluegrass style rhythm playing. The band is really making a name for itself and really starting to take off. Check out our website or myspace page at myspace.com/acousticblueonline if you get the chance.

I like what you said about being able to afford a 20 Dollar Hygrometer... if you can spend 4 grand on a box.. and you can't spend the little bit of money on the…

Dedicated to those of us who are just getting started.
So what you are talking about here Jon, is not what I started the thread for( but it IS a nice aside!) You NEED to know what your humidity is at in your house were your axe lives. That is what the Hygrometer is for. There are all kinds of threads ev…
I've never had a gauge that I've used for any of my guitars, but what I have done which only costs a few dollars is to get a travel soap box and a sponge to use as a small humidifier that I keep in my case.
It's works really well and fits perfectly…
Really nice. Great to see someone slowing down and being tasty.
I have to admit I do like D'addarios, once I get my callouses back I may move up to ej17's

I just put an hour and a half on my Osthoff and it was one fine time! That guitar REALLY wakes up after about 20 minutes or so. Man I love that guitar!
When you get to John's shop, ask him to see his new dread he's making. It should be pretty special.
When are you comin' down to Nashvegas for a visit???
