Or instead of posting the postscript file, why not post the groff/ditroff/nroff
file so we can make changes? It should be much shorter. Can we get some more of
these files posted (that is the point of the group). How about some Yes!!!!

Thanks Marcus! But why post it in "postscript" which is much more difficult
to edit, takes much more bandwidth and above all we miss the "chord" options
like 2 logical pages on a physical one, font sizes, chord definitions etc..
if you have the song in chopro format, could you please post it?

  I think there is a key difference here: Steve Vai and Joe Satriani play
instrumental music whereas Lou Reed focus' on songs.  As good as Lou Reed is 
I don't think his playing would hold up in a strictly musical setting.
  Also, if being able to play what you hear in your head is what makes you a
good musician, then I would suggest that would make Steve Vai a good musician.
Afterall...his last album was composed in his head and then played on guitar.
Whether you like it or not is a different matter. 
   Just out of curiosity; what do you mean   by "play in a natural way" and
"in an academic way" ???

Well, I'd have to disagree with you somewhat there.  I used to not have the
gift, but then a frightening and wondrous thing happened to me - I took
music theory.  In one year of high school instruction, I learned to hear
things about 100 times better than I could previous to taking the course.
Now, sometimes I walk up to an instrument (guitar or piano) and play the
note I'm humming on the first try, whereas it used to be that I couldn't
even be sure which note I was playing.

Moral of the story is that, at least in my case, significant improvement
in the ability to hear (and play by ear) a melody is possible.

I agree - I'm still trying to learn to do this kind of stuff.  I think
'the best thing to do with your instrument' is a very important part
of being good at playing it, no matter which instrument it is.

As a pianist who is trying to teach himself the guitar, I can understand

That *never* happens to me.  I get more and more and more critical of myself

Hi.  I hope this is the right place to post this.  I own a guitar and I have no
idea how to play it.  My brother (who plays) suggested I get some sheet music
with tabulature and teach myself, but this didn't seem to work.  I was thinking
of getting one of those "Mel Bays Guitar Method" sort of books and learn to play
"Row Row Row Your Boat" or whatever.  Anyway, I'd like suggestions as to what
you think the best way to start is (without a private teacher) and what books or
video tapes or whatever are most helpful.  I know this is really vague, but even
I don't really know what I want...

Thanks,

A small strat-style child's guitar that I made several years ago for 
my nephew was stolen in Washington State a few weeks ago.  The guitar 
has a black-dyed Oak body, mahogony neck and a scale length of about 
20".  It has two pickups I made myself with the initials "MvR" on them
(I suppose thise could be scraped off), gold tuners, a brass bridge, a
semicircular control compartment accessible from the back, as well as 
a battery compartment, a plexiglass pickguard and a 3 position switch.

The guitar is small enough that it is hard for an adult to chord, so I 
suspect it's value isn';t too great, though I put hundreds of hours 
into building it.  I will contribute some money towards a reward for 
it's return, as I'm sure would my sister who is the mother of the 
owner.

If you live in Washington state or Portland and you are in a music 
store, or pawn shop, please keep an eye out for it.
