<p>Hi Matt,</p>
<p> </p>
<p>What a great (though somewhat daunting) idea. That would have to be Hawaii?? :-)</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I had a brief reply to an email that Eric was madly practicing for NAMM. I'd love to be there but, as a consolation, look forward to events on video.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Thank you for your referral to Carolyn. She was most gracious and mentioned that my Skye was drying and looked</p>

<p>Hi Matt,</p>
<p> </p>
<p>What a great (though somewhat daunting) idea. That would have to be Hawaii?? :-)</p>

<p>Thank you for your referral to Carolyn. She was most gracious and mentioned that my Skye was drying and looked</p>
<p>beautiful. I guess I'm getting quite excited now that Christmas festivities are over and I have time to dream.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>One technical question, what brand and gauge of strings will you be using on yours? I have Eric's preferred</p>
<p>string recorded somewhere. From memory it's a D'Addario something-16. I'll send it along in an email,</p>
<p>once retrieved.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Christmas was low-key but I did receive a jazz study book by Barry Galbraith entitiled, Guitar Comping #3.</p>
<p>I am a tab man and will have to dig to get back with standard notation. The arrangements are cool and the</p>
<p>cd provides a good incentive. It is quite a way above my current standard, but should fill in a few blank</p>
<p>spots down the track.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Another recent find of a more basic nature has been Desi Serna's book on Fretboard Theory. I guess I'm</p>
<p>a sucker for guitar books and good arrangements.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Hope your New Year is a beauty.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Regards,</p>
