Hey guys,

I'm looking for any and all recommendations on instructional stuff.. books, video, CDs, or software.

I would ultimately like to get my hands on some lessons (not sure if I can in my immediate (rural) area)... but I do have a music background, with over 10 years as a percussionist (formally trained), 12 years of guitar (partially trained), and a sprinkling of bass guitar in the past.

So now I'm looking for something that will aid instruction that is SOLID and easy to follow.

Any recs?
Thanks

Dan
