Yep, that’s the guitar I am playing. I love it too.
In my heart of hearts, I have to confess my all-time favorite guitars are my Taylors. (shh, don’t tell my Epi!)
Congrats on your new guitar!
Best wishes, Lisa

Your lessons on fingerpicking are making it a lot easier than I thought it would be (although I still have to practice a lot!). I noticed that you play an Epiphone Masterbilt fingerpicking model (EF-500 RCCE?). Do you play these exclusively? I recently bought a Masterbilt Mahogany Dreadnaught, and I love it!
Thanks for the great lessons, I always look forward to the next one!

Some people swear by fingerpicks, but personally I have never been able to get the hang of them. I rely on my fingernails (real, or sometimes, fake!)

Your thoughts on finger picks. Have you used them, do you now, do you recommend them, if so, what type/brand? Thank you

I just pulled you up on Itunes,,,and listened to all of your samples. Do I detect some Marianne Faithful influence? I mean that in a very positive way.

I am not aware of any Guitar Tricks specials coming up. I know they just wrapped up a couple around the holidays and the new year.

I’ll remind you though that even when you sign up without a discount, they do offer a 60-day money-back guarantee. So you can essentially try it out for 2 months to see if it’s a good fit for you, and get your money back if you decide it’s not. Even at “full price”, I think it’s only around $15 per month.
Here’s a link if you want to check it out. Guitar Tricks Online Guitar Lessons

I just spent the last 2 days filming some fun new stuff for Guitar Tricks! Now, off to the editing studio….

Do you know if there will be any sales coming up soon for Guitar Tricks full membership?
Just curious, Lisa J

Wonderful to meet you! Thanks for your kind note. I’m happy to know you and the guitar are back together again.

I “met” you on the guitar tricks site. I subscribed and I’m very happy I did. I’m a 57 year old guitar lover. Played in my younger years, then decided to pick it up again now that it is “my turn” in life to do as I please. I’ve learned so much from you already, as well as the other guitar tricks staffers. Many thanks for all you do.
