Random movie quote to make you seem hip and "with it": I'm thinking about getting metal legs. It's a risky operation, but it'll be worth it.

a classic is the intro of Under the Bridge by RHCP...but you are only good if you can do it correctly WITHOUT a capo...(me :wink: )

check out the New Acoustic Guitar World, with Cobain on the front. It has an acoustic arrangement of "under the bridge", not to mention a lesson in 90's Nirvana unplugged, and a john mayer article that teaches "wonderland". Its a pretty good issue, No. 60. the capo is at the second fret for above tab.

Sublime's "What I Got" is one of my personal favorites to play.
