After "dabbling" with learning to play the resonator guitar, I want to get serious with the instrument and need a recommendation on an entry level instruction video. Can anyone help?
Thanks. |

I concur with Bill's suggestions.
Jimmy Heffernan's is called Resophonic Guitar From Scratch.
Go to www.Jimmyheffernan.com and click on The Country Store.
I haven't seen the Josh video, and I don't doubt that it is great, but can you get it on DVD? That keeps me from buying it right there.
Rob's DVD, in 2 parts, is available at www.Homespuntapes.com

Thanks for your suggestions and recommendations. The Jim Hefferman "Scratch".video looks to be what I am looking for.

Mike,
If you learn to play everything on Jimmy's Scratch lessons you can go play with the big boys.  Billy |

| Let me add my 2 cents. I just got the 100 Licks DVD. As soon as I can get my jaw off the floor, I'll be in my music room with the "Do Not Disturb" sign on the door for the rest of my life. [This message was edited by Charles French on 08 August 2006 at 05:39 AM.] |

Jimmy Heffernan's "100 Licks" DVD is the one that spends the most time in my DVD player, that's for sure.
There is just some killer stuff to learn on there.

| Jimmy's videos are wonderful. Another suggestion I know he'd agree with is to check out the Mike Auldrige Song series- he explains every last move, no tab, and to see what incredible music he gets out of simple patterns and positions, clearly explained, is extremely inspiring. Fantastic stuff. http://www.mikeauldridge.com/#SECTION2 |
