That's John Pearse, and though I've never comes across his strings, I'm glad his name came up here, because it reminded me of him.

Many many years back, he ran a series of workshops on playing the guitar for singing, at Cecil Sharpe House in London, and that's where I got started finding out how to do it. He's a great lad, and a great teacher. And then he did a series on the TV, teaching for half the programme, and with a guest the other half, and came out with a manual and a teaching record.

And then at some point he vanished from Engand, and went across to the States where he seems to be doing good stuff. And this thread reminded me about that, so thanks.

If anyone runs into him, out in California, give him
him my best. And I'm quite sure his strings are good'uns.
