anyone have suggestions for an instructor who has the ability to teach some dawg, jazzy stuff? East Bay would be ideal, but willing to travel for the right person. Yhanks in advance.

Bob Burnett in Santa Cruz teaches straight jazz, swing, Django-style guitar and mandolin. Great teacher and musician. Might be a bit far from the East Bay, but he teaches on the weekends so you could take lesson and then hit the beach! Here is a link:

Jody Stecher ---All the members of Warren Hellman's "Wronglers" met as students of Jody. So, he must teach... He is mostly noted for his traditional playing but I've heard him play bluegrass with Peter Rowan and others and he can play anything. He's in the Berkley area I believe.
