"Discovery" by Jeff Monkman

Acoustic instrumental played on a Martin D-15 guitar. I have a dozen or so instrumentals I've been messing with for a few years that need to be recorded. This is the first.

This is my FAV so far. Very nice... what are some songs to learn that are this kinda style. I mostly play rock... like Iron maiden style stuff :) would love to learn some acoustic stuff like this.

Thanks Man. I'm not sure exactly what to tell you as far as songs to learn. I've gone through a lot of different influences in my musical life.

Mark Knopfler stuff is good for improving the right hand's accuracy. Both with a pick and without. Neil Young is good for incorporating lead lines within the chord like this song has. Just put the time in and it will come.

peace

DR? Sunbeams? I've heard people talk well of them. What brand of capo is that?

Great playing and tone...A++++++++++++++++

[theMonk1]

The strings are DR Rare. I've used them on other guitars and didn't like them too much. They bring this guitar to life though. I use the Pre Alloy DR's too, great.

The capo is a Kyser.

Thanks a lot!
