During a ruthless clear out I found this book in the loft. I bought it in the very early 1970s when I didn't know the difference between bluegrass & clawhammer styles! I never learned clawhammer and the book has been unused all these years. I believe it's been out of print for a long time. This copy is in very good condition with only minor creasing and scuffing on the cover. I'm sure it would be a valuable resource for a clawhammer player. I'm asking £15 to include postage within the UK. Please see classifieds.

May I be considered for the John Burke fiddle tune book please? Have seen him live and enjoy his renditions. Currently heading home from holiday, but will be home this Friday. My email is john.jcelliott@gmail.com. Regards, John

	jcelliott says: 6/17/2016 11:12:38 AM Hi Harry, Many thanks. It seems a number of emails have gone astray whilst I have been away. Am now back home so able to send off a cheque or send payment straight to bank account. My contact details are 07808 064613 or john.jcelliott@gmsil.com. Just let me know what suits you. Regards, John
