@steveshaw- yes, been listening to songs with it and I'm noticing its used mostly (except for a few professionals of the blues type) as an accent for the music rather than the "focus".

@pavane- great I'll check it out- do you have a website or something? A quick search didn't bring up anything.

@leenia- thanks! some great stuff there

I found this site to be very helpfull with getting started (some folk tabs and a forum as well)
