      Hi Emil,

      This is a very interesting look into your fingerstyle soloing technique. I played fingerstyle for years, ragtime and classical. I moved over to hybrid picking to play in bands, I am encouraged to move back to fingerstyle, after seeing how you use it to your advantage.

      Also, I notice that you often rely on the first 3 fingers on your left hand, throwing the little finger in when necessary. I was watching videos of Robbin Ford and found it intesting how much he employed this 3 finger approach in his left hand. At first it looked like he never used his little finger. He almost looked like Django.

      Thanks for a great lesson and sharing insights into your solo fingerstyle. I will get a lot of mileage out of this.

      I realize that you may not be replying to these posts anymore, and ProGuitar is losing (has lost) momentum. I find that sad, as what you have put together here is truly valuable and unique. I hope you will be able to continue on with it at some point.

      Thanks, Greg

      Hey Emil,

      I have been playing guitar for over 50 years (scary to even think about). I even taught privately and at the local college. I have a spot of arthritis in my hands now and so I have to be selective with what I practice.

      I appreciate so much what you have put together here. The content is so top shelf and spot on with what my interests are. Also, your easy way and excellent lessons makes learning with you a pleasure. Your passion for teaching is obvious. I signed up for a year and feel glad I did. Every day I learn something new.

      I also have a subscription at TrueFire (Black Friday Offer). I like TrueFire and pick some things up there, but I learn way more with you here. Thanks so much for sharing your bountiful knowledge of the guitar and music in general. You are awesome man. Keep up the good work.

      Cheers, Greg
