INTRODUCTION

A few comments from
students & colleagues:
Brad,
...I
can't stand not having a good
guitar teacher! I need new material to
study
and guidance on what I should be doing.
I never realized how good I had it when
you
lived here! So just email me back when
you get a chance and if you have t
he
time - I would be so happy if you could
send me some material to look at...
Jason T.
Brad,
...How
have you been man??
Once again I can't thank you enough for all
of your
help. I have been practicing my
ass off. Just as a sort of update,
I have been working on: practicing making my
own estudio style songs, implementing the
usage of my third 'A' finger...
Matt B.

Dear Brad, Just
wanted to drop a note of
thanks for your fine work and positive
demeanor that permeates to all since joining
our team at our school. We look forward to our
continued success w/ you on our team.

Hi
Brad: I met you about a month ago at the Market Street Grill
and you gave me a copy of a CD. I have to tell you
that in the past when someone gives you a CD it is mediocre
at best.... but your CD is fantastic! I would
like to use some of the tracks for two of
the documentaries I am now producing.
Great stuff!
