Any reviews? I'm a intermediate-to-advanced player.

I haven't checked the whole thing out, but seems there is a lot of talking over the 2 discs.
For these kinds of things, I get the most out of them if there is a lot of 'this is how I pick this tune, lick' demoing. Hershel Sizemore did a DVD that has him basically picking his tunes, with appropriate close-ups. Not a lot of talking.

I've got the Steffey DVD. Although it's been a while since I've watched it, to go with what AlanN said up there... Disc one is strictly interview. It's interesting... entertaining... but Adam didn't tell me anything that I didn't already know or had heard elsewhere. Disc two is the 'this is how I pick this tune, lick' part. I learn best by listening and watching the player. Of all the instructional DVDs I've watched, Adams was the easiest to follow along with and see what he was doing.

I have the DVD & it's too long & drawn out altogether,although it does give an insight into AS's Mando-mind. Disc 1 is all talk & not much else,disc 2 is the real deal as far as playing actual 'tunes'
is concerned & worth having. Herschel Sizemore's DVD (which also has Alan Bibey on it)is for me,a better instructional DVD,apart from 'ole HS being one of my very favourite players,
