In Walter Stettner's clip of the week on his website is Hal Rugg playing Take Me As I Am. I am trying to figure out what he is doing at about 53 seconds after he starts playing. I know it is probably something so simple that I am overlooking it, but its driving me nuts. Hope someone can help.

Drew, that REALLY hits the spot.***
i made a change to my document (reflecting your input) that i can still play on this guitar without those lowers (but looking foreward to having them to play it right).[This message was edited by C. Christofferson on 25 July 2006 at 09:58 AM.]
