Here's a Tip of the Month where Greg Voros (Head Guitar Tech for Gruhn's Guitars, Nashville TN) discusses with Steve Krenz selecting a new guitar; what to look for, what to choose, and why. (7: 12 mins) (also found under Tips of the Pros)

I had started the Major Scales workouts a few months back. I got up to the Intermediate level of the Major Scales 2 lesson. Well, I got sidetracked (not really a surprise, lol!).... So two weeks ago I started them again. Quickly reviewed the first lesson, then moved back into MS2. Took me a few days to get back thru the first workout, which I think I was not doing as well as I thought the first go thru... The intermediate is challenging!!! I have been at it for about a week, and for the first time tonite, I was able to keep up on almost all of the exercises!!! Persistence really pays off!! One or two days I had hardly any time to practice, so this was the only stuff I did as I could get it done in a half hour. I will definitely spend a few days or longer really getting this before moving on to the last one...

Here's a helpful video from the Guitar Gathering 2016 where Greg Voros discusses in detail, setting up your flat top acoustic guitar yourself; (59:45 in length. Also found under Tips of the Pros)

Mike, I received your submission. Thanks! I sent an email confirmation, too.

Just sent you an mp3, though it's over a year old. I'm working on something else I hope to have done before the deadline. Just have to find the time.

While not exactly entry level, I would love to have a Cervantes Crossover.

oh I wish my Pretty Woman was ready.. but it's currently Pretty awful

It will be interesting to hear your impressions of it, Neil! Please be sure to tag me when you write a response. I don't want to miss it. The combination is so unusual; however, they wouldn't make this combo if people didn't buy them.

No Cindy; I have not played one... yet. I'm thinking of asking my local music store to bring one in for me to try...(or I can drive about a 1/2 hour to another one of their stores) They have undersaddle transducer pickups and an acoustic pickup under the chambered top. You can shape the sound with the EQ on board, or with an amp to almost any tone you want. Which is why so many pros use them...

Neil, I have no excuse for taking so long to thank you for putting together this hugely comprehensive, helpful post.

Good day Robert, The Yamaha is definitely one to go see. I don't own a nylon string but I believe Steve has a Yamaha that he bought in college and had an electric pickup installed into. I don't remember the exact model. As I remember, he has said many times that he does most of his recording with it and were he stranded on a deserted island, it would be his guitar to have with him. Please correct me if I'm in error, folks.

I hope that I am done with my music room by then. Setting up my PC to stream today, should be setting up my equipment and making a list of what I need.......
