I want to thank you all again for your comments. Elizabethan music is something that I'm not too familiar with, any suggestions on where to begin as I explore that genre would be greatly appreciated.

Much of what I play and listen to is the blues...Delta mainly. Anyhow, I've just been realizing that most of my set sounds too familiar. In fact, lyrics to one tune can easily be put into another...suppose I could play on long set of all my tunes without ever stopping. It'll nice to have more variety...I'll need to beef up the ole record collection. I've even noticed this lack of variety in some of the more folky tunes I do...seems they're all G, C & D. And while I can easily play 'em in another key, I just don't feel that's the solution.

Neil, I like your suggestion of utilizing the voicings more...fits into the "things-I-know-but-forget-to-do-too- often-category.

And Whistle, your right too...I need to learn to trust my ears more and worry less about the whole theory thing. I guess sometimes I don't feel I'm doing enough, be it technically or what not, with my guitar to really actualize that "good musician" status...and that's keeping me from being truthful with the music I play.

Anyway, thank you again everyone for sharing your ideas with me.
