Man, it’s hard to describe. I like deeper voices. Not like Johnny Cash, just someone that has a more naturally deep voice. Combine that with good vocal talent and I think it sounds good.

I like someone who accepts a challenge, now all you have to do is get a lesson with Jake!

I will if you pay for it… I would seriously like to, I just don’t want to spend that much and I don’t know how much I could get out of just one lesson when he doesn’t know where I’m at and has to evaluate before teaching me stuff. I think it would be effective long term, I’m just not willing to spend that kind of money right now.

Haha. I totally understand. I couldn’t get lessons with Jake until I started getting a few students myself. I know it’s expensive but I feel like it’s a worthy investment and I’m grateful to be able to teach a few local children so I can study online with Jake. I’m sure you could do the same - didn’t you mention you’re getting students?

Yep. But I’m trying to save as much as I can. I’m not super into guitar but I’m sure he could teach me general music stuff that could be applied to everything. I might consider if I have like 30 students and lots of money saved haha.

All valid points. Not everybody has to get private lessons with the same teacher, I’m just teasing y’all. But - if you want to learn the TRUTH about picks, and hand position, and tone, don’t knock it till you try it

I think it would be super fun and beneficial to do ArtistWorks with Noam Pikelny. I might do that sometime.

AW is a great option; more affordable too. And you get one-on-one instruction and advice. That’s the factor that’s really crucial to founding strong bluegrass opinions… just knowing what you’re talking about, because knowledgable instructors have guided you. You’d love the Video Exchanges, especially since you seem to be the type of person that is really motivated by frequently videoing yourself!

I just started listening to a DLQ album and I’m just gonna say: Sorry that I ever said they don’t have vocal talent, even if I was semi joking
