fotp: Hey, what do you think about Rodenberg pedals ? Just ordered the GAS 728B on thomann, hope it will be worth it !

fotp: Hi, who is your sandberg reseller ? thx

funkyjonx: Does anyone have pro tips or pointers for smooth slides? I find that I hear the individual frets/note much more than I would like.

mikeepatrick: Just really, really wanted to thank you, dude. Groove on, brother...

Dug: would someone be so kind and do a tutorial on "i'll be there" by Marcus Miller? just thought i'd ask!!! thx Marlowe, i luv it here!!!

MarloweDK: Thank you Patricio, your suggestions have been noted, and yes im looking into the ipad too:-)

Patricio: Hi MDK, Wow waht a great DVD... just spent a few hours learning the first few lessons... great quality and well taught... I'm very pleased with my purchase. If any improvment could be made I would only say could there be a 'repeat' funcion so that you can get a lick to play continually? or what aboutt a not showingthe BPM so that we can use the correct tempo using the drum patterns... overall a wonderful job... I look forward to more downloads in the future.... especially for IPad

MarloweDK: Great to hear, enjoy it:-)

Soulburn: Finally I donwloaded the DVD, its simply amazing. I wait for more material like this. Thanks you very much! Cheers from Argentina

MarloweDK: Thank you, and yes, i will make something else for the next dvd
