Here's a link to a bunch of guitar related links at Legato Guitars.  A great place to do business.

My former teacher, David Pritchard.  Get his records and if you are in So Cal and want guitar lessons put yourself in his hands and do what he says.

As unbelievable as it may seem, I know that some people don't want to learn guitar but prefer piano lessons instead.  In that case talk to my friend Stephanie Koogler.
She's in Chandler as well.


Bill Sethares has written an encyclopedic book on alternate tunings.  Some of you have been curious about such things so here is more than what you'll ever want to know about such things.

Here are some of my guitars.  This is the Buscarino I used on my latest CD.  I couldn't be more happy with the way it recorded.  Thank you John.


Gibson L5 Wes.  Among the finer things money can buy.


Heritage Sweet 16.  How sweet it is.
