Six String Sunday (May 16th, 2021)

How’s it going this week? Hope you’ve been getting some good, guitar playing time in! I’m writing this week’s issue on Thursday, May 13th, and tomorrow’s my birthday. Each year around this time, I take a one week break from the newsletter. But I didn’t want to leave you with no links at all - so here are some of the coolest things that have popped up in my inbox and across YouTube.

Most of them are brand new, and a few here and there are older videos that have come back on to my radar this week. If I had one birthday wish, it'd be that you hit me up and just say hey, what you're working on with guitar, etc. I hope you have a great weekend, and I’ll be back with a regular newsletter next Sunday!
