Default Etude for picking technique on new instrument (tabs and video)

Hi!

When practicing new instrument or new style I have found excellent aid to learn classical etudes. Playing bach's preludes or Paganini's caprices puts one in situation where one have to check out really detailed hand positions.

This instrument (Bulgarian tambura) is little bit mystery in playing technique-wise for me. So i thought this would be good help for it. I have made transcription of this etude and it works well on guitar too (same tuning). So if you are interested check you tabs/notation from this link:

Nice piece for guitar as you said, just a little short - have you ever thought about developing the theme further and extending it...?

Thank you! Now that you said it, actually I have had thoughts to make more of these etudes for plectrum guitar and offer it as a ebook.
Maybe I should compose it little bit longer as you said. What do you think?

cheers, Mikko
