Agreed, very nicely done...it takes a while to download since i only have dial-up but it's worth the wait.  by the way orsino, do you know the song Cavatina?  this is the guitar solo played by John Williams on a classical guitar for the opening and closing of the movie The Deer Hunter.  i was just wondering how this song would sound on a steel string guitar.  it's a simple arpeggio pattern with no hammer-ons or pull-offs but i hear is pretty difficult to play smoothly... it's a favorite of mine and i plan on learning it (or trying to)some day.

Poki,
Cavatina has got to be one of the most beautiful tunes ever written. Personally I think it would be even better on steel. More sustain, clarity, etc. Maybe I'll give it a try some day.
