I play guitar and Dobro player with the Thunderbridge Bluegrass Boys thunderbridgebluegrass.com playing a Martin D28 / Martin CEO5 and Model 27 Deluxe Gibson Dobro. I've been playing Bluegrass for just over 3 years with the band, and have so much fun learning this monster of all styles! ..........Maybe in 20 years time I might just find the secret! ....On second thoughts, this is unlikely, but will sure have fun looking!! We have had incredible support by so many people, locally, from the Hangout and in particular, Dean Studebaker-Hawk from Nevada, ). I have not met Dean yet but God willing, will one day when we visit the States. He has revolutionised our playing by supplying us with all manner of finger picks, and so much support with our playing. Thanks Dean.
