    Tosin Abasi's right hand - in particular the double thumb which is no doubt massively influenced by Victor Wooten

    Matteo Mancuso is so good, I wonder whether his is the new 'correct' technique and the rest of us are doing it wrong :)
     
    It's not a competition.

    Roland said: Scales are primarily a tool for categorising knowledge, not a rule for what can or cannot be played.

    I wonder if Jeff Healey started out playing Appalachian dulcimer? The techniques are surprisingly similar, though obviously without the blistering solos on dulcimer.

    I think it was how he first managed to ‘hold’ and play the guitar when he started at 3 years old.
