I've had the privilege of exploring all five of Mike Marshall's books, and have nothing but kudos to report. Yes, it's a bit overwhelming (but then, have you seen Mike in concert? Talk about overwhelming...), however, this is no excuse to not jump in the pool and start swimming, accumulating these for your personal library. Each is an incredible treasure on their own, and you can't start until you buy one.
Albeit, it's a Jazz Mandolinist biased take on them, but if you want a hands-on opinion (no financial investment) you can read my report here (http://jazzmando.com/mike_marshall_methods.shtml).

Thanks Ted, #With your glowing review I'll break down and place an order. #After bemoaning that it will already take the rest of my life to get through materials sitting on my shelf.... #New energy, new inspiration! (Now to find a few more hours in the day).

Speaking of which, don't you have the inside track on another "soon-to-be-released" major instructional reference? #Any schedule updates???

And also--Go Big Red!--fingers crossed for a good year! #Your buddy, Jim-in-Portland
