Hey all,I came across this guy on youtube last night. Thought maybe the good folks on this forum would enjoy this guy's talent and tone, which is fantastic. Hmmm, I wonder if he would have gotten a forward on the acoustic guitar listing that just passed? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ddn4MGaS ... qsEoCheers! SteveOooops....meant to put this in General Hangout....My bad! Sorry

I owe you and Squiddy some e-mail, but as you know, I'm under the weather a bit. Will answer ASAP. I got another link for you guys.....Michael Hedges, who I understand, was one of Andy's mentors. I just love the pure, uncluttered sound of this harp guitar. Hedges died in a car accident I believe, very sad. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JTC7kPZZmuM
