Also, you can do some nice chord solos rather than single note stuff.<br><br>One thing that's fun to do is to set up a drone string (I normally use the high E) and play fingerstyle, plucking the drone string with or between every note on the other strings as you solo.  I play a lot of blues-type stuff and it sounds really good in that context.

Yeah, I've experimented with that as well. Its amazingh how much effect manipulating the bass can have.]]></content:encoded>

                        <content:encoded><![CDATA[depends on the style of music.  If you do a blues trio, then less is definitely more (and more with feel).  If you are doing an acoustic trio with heavy fusion and progressive tendencies, then feeling is still important and slowing it down some, but speed is kind of required frequently for that style.
