Very nice Jeff, I've never tried much of that but would love to learn.

Josh, glad you enjoy the music / style. And, your right, there aren't any books that i know of that teach this style. I'm in the process of putting one together. For now i can say, think of something you know to be impossible .. and do it anyway .. haha .. drop your perceptions of what you believe to be impossible .
Exploit the guitar for every possible sound it can make and watch lots of video's by Michael Hedges , T-Cophony and Tommy Emmanuel.
I'll keep your contact info and inform you when my book is available.
thanks again
jeff
Actually Jeff, what do reckon is the best to way try and learn this genre of fingerstyle tapping and alternate tunings? I don't think there are many instructional books that teaches this.
later,

Very creative and imaginative stuff, Jeff! Wish I could do it! Enjoyed all the videos.
Let me know where I can catch you live in town sometime. I've been only playing for friends and family until now
and am in the process of developing a set to do an open mike at the Muse in the near future. Any tips you might have would be greatly appreciated. (I mainly need help with the butterflies in my stomach) Thanks for the friend invite! Take care!
