I agonized for quite awhile about spending $40 (more or less) for his big book....(complete) I was really surprised at all the stuff in there......to say nothing of when did he ever have time to put it all down on paper!? Must type with both hands & he knows computers, too! spreadsheets galore! I haven't seen his videos nor been in on any of his courses, but I've seen him play and IMHO he knows whereof he speaks!!! Great stuff and a great person! as well as a great picker & comedian!

I have Joe's "Technique Bundle" and it's done me more good than half a dozen "tab" books. It trains your body to play the pedal steel. Get that part down, and the music will flow.

I've just started learning the PSG and bought the technique bundle and it does seem to be a really thorough resource.
I was hoping the drills might be more musical but I understand the limitations when you just need to focus on the picking hand that note choice is going to be limited.
I suppose as I get better with the drills I can start adding bar moves or pedals to make them pretty to my ears.
