    Thanks guys. Look forward to all this support. Not sure where to start…ha ha! It’s like lesson overdose! I did Rick’s legato lesson today. One thing I learned already was that I was pushing down too hard on the fret board and wasting energy and also losing speed. It’s amazing how lightly the pros actually press down on the strings. Look forward to some of Sean’s stuff too. I can see already that he is an excellent composer and writer. Plus his style of playing appeals to me…..kinda progressive. I also like that OLP Petrucci signature. I would love to have one of those or a MM version. I bidded on one of those OLP’s on ebay once but lost out by another bidder. Right now I’m very happy with my Ibanez RG 1550M Prestige. Pumpkin orange with black pick guard and maple board.
