Magic is real, just look around you, some of the most amazing things have no reason, no explanation but are very real.

Rabbit, are you familiar with Christopher Parkening? He's one of my favorite classical players. Outstanding player.

Sticking with an acoustic theme - definitely check out Jesse Cook if you haven't already. A great fusion of classical/spanish/even some folk/world music styles. His playing is simply beautiful.

Yay! At risk of becoming the biggest geeky loser on this website, I'm puting myself up for public humiliation now that I've figured out how to use my webcam WITH sound! I expect to be made fun of, and will except nothing less!

Lots of guitar players on here. I put guitar too, though it's bass guitar. I own a Musicman Stingray and I love playing funk bass.

Some of my bass influences are: Flea, Les Claypool, Stanley Clarke, Stu Hamm, Marcus Miller, Steve Harris and Jason Newstead.

There's nothing better than grabbing your 4-string and doing a bit of popping and slapping when you're home alone!

..yup, guitar for ooooooooh 19 years....fretless bass for about ten....

...a fairly decent version of the starsky and hutch theme (gotcha!) on the hammond, green onions and what i'd say...

...and strangely, last of the summer wine on harmonica...

acoustic guitarist faves:
bert jansch/jose feliciano/rodrigo y gabriella/and actually i'd rate jimmy page better on acoustic than electric...

and while im blathering on....
hammond organ - stevie winwood/brian auger/charles kynard
bass - jack bruce/j.p. jones
drums - billy cobham/idris muhammad
electric - hendrix/gallacher for me...
vocals - stevie marriot/otis redding/graham bond/paul weller/gladys knight

I've been playing piano for uhhh.... 28 years now (damn I'm old!). Also various keyboards and electronic instruments, drums and percussion, and a tiny, tiny bit of guitar. I played oboe in junior high school but I've taken a vow to never touch it again as long as I live :lol:
