- 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.

love that ending!
I'm out of town and just had a chance to get online for a few minutes ... my laptop battery is about dead. Thanks for your kind comments.
I'm pleased that you learned Boys & Girls ... it always brings back fond memories of Quinn & Jennifer as little children.
Keep with the crosspicking, it's a very useful technique.
Take care.
Dudley
