This is one of my favorite Guy Van Duser arrangements.

Very nice. Getting that one down is quite an accomplishment.

Thanks Rich. You're not kidding. I still work on perfecting all these little parts within even smaller parts all the time. The biggest challenge was figuring out the best way to finger certain passages.

Nice work Toby! Watching your videos reminds me of how many times people have told me to play with finger/thumb picks but I've been stuck in the bare fingernails approach for way too long. Watching your videos makes me realize I probably should've listened to them a long time ago. Nice volume and projection!

Yes, I believe you can find this from Mel Bay. The book is called 'Stride Guitar.'

Thanks gibby. It still takes a lot of work to keep it at performance level and I think Guy Van Duser did an incredible job arranging it.
