Hi,
I'm looking for used or new tab books that include an audio cd and teach western swing style. I'd prefer C6 (6 or 8 string) tuning, but any other common western swing non-pedal tuning is ok. I especially would like to learn some solo'ing techniques, arpeggios, outlining 7th/9th chords, slants, finding a melody, harmonics.
I lost the Cindy Cashdollar DVD unfortunately, so I'm in the market to re-buy that. I just learned about Jeff Newman's C6 stuff, and i really like him, so I'd love to get my hands on that. But I'm sure there's probably some older stuff out there that may not be in CD format, but was really useful to some players back in the day. I'd love to hear about it.
Any recommendations on where to get a whole batch of learning material in this genre would be much appreciated. Is there a music shop somewhere that specializes in relatively obscure used learning material?
Thanks for looking! |

| Dick Meis had some great stuff, if you can find a way to contact him. Think the website is defunct. |
