Girlyplaya - +1 on what jjw says - watch some of his vids on his website - he can play a bit. When I learned Ain't Talkin' 'Bout Love, I played the Am with just downpicks as it's relatively slow & I found I could control the muting & get a chunkier sound better. Alternate picking got a bit messy at times when the muting failed (I still find it harder to mute upstrokes on the higher strings).
jjw - I haven't found Portsmouth Pete yet - asking around bars in Portsmouth for "Pete" makes it sound like I'm cruising - so I stopped. I'll leave that to George Michael. It was upsetting the chickens too I'm still working through the Stetina books (now Speed Mechanics), but picked up the Gambale book you suggested & another one by David (?) Mead that looked ok & covered a bit of ground. Re Jonathon Ross - lol. Maybe it's your initials - Jonathon Woss
