pull out all the stops on this tape and share every trick I know some
of these I've never shown anyone before. You'll feel as if you've spent
several weekends in my shop working with me on some tough fretjobs!"
— Dan

| "I simply couldn't fit all the fretting tips and techniques - nor the variety of fret jobs - that I wanted to share in just one advanced fretting tape. Read the tape descriptions, and you'll see why. For example, would you miss 'Fender Sideways Fretting'? No way!" — Dan
The focus of this video
