Does anybody here get bit by the guitar flatpicking bug once in a
while?

I'm presently on one such binge now. It's fun to jump ship once in a
while and makes coming back the mandolin fresh.

Anyway I was watching Norman Blake's first Homespun guitar video and
he said something that I've heard before but the way he said it made
it finally sink in. He said, and I paraphrase "I want you to get the
idea of what I'm doing but I want you to do it your own way this way
you'll play the best of what YOU have to offer"

In other words it's really difficult to get the EXACT nuance of
someone elses playing and should we even try? Or should we get the
general gist of it and play what comes naturally to us?
