Hello Jack,
Thanks for writing this very funny satire... I hope people see it as
such. I appreciate all the good things people are saying about my
book as well as the negative. I'll accept any criticism as a positive
thing. I hope people will feel free to point out errors so that we can
all make "The BEAD Method of Fretboard Mastery" the very best it can
be. All in all, the mistakes are minor. I'm setting down this week
to make a revision of the book. I expect to have this done by
November this year.
Why have I waited a whole year? Well, the book has needed time for my
readers to identify any errors. I expect I will continue to do this
each year until the book is nearly perfect. Revisions are not free to
me. I have to pay the printer a revision fee of about $100.00. So,
you can see why I haven't rushed to get the revision out.
For those of you I have identifed... You will be getting your free
copy of the revision sometime before January of next year.
Thank all of you for your support!

trying to locate typographical errors in your published work, "BEAD
Guitar." Missing periods, i's that haven't been dotted, E#'s and B#'s
that you refer to as F's and C's instead of Gb's and Db's, etc. I do
this because I have an unrealized dream of being a published writer,
but that can never happen because, obviously, I have no time to write
my own ground-breaking guitar method due to the fact that all my time
is spent criticizing yours! Oh by the way, I noticed an interesting
trend, even though I have no idea how to tune my guitar and can only
play a 1 - 4 - 5 combination (strictly key of G), I do seem to be
blessed with the ability to point out others short comings. Thanks for
listening, and thanks for writing a great method that allows my
meaningless life to have a focus.
