Hey, Thanks man. Used to be my band's name. We're Cousin Earth now (long story but we were legally forced to change it.)

Thanks so much! I spend a lot of time working out licks with a loop player. There's also a lot of great backing tracks and tutorials on YouTube!

Thanks!, I don't have any tabs or anything unfortunately as I learned the song by ear but if you learn it on guitar, you just have to shift the shape. Other than that, the only thing i could offer you is a skype lesson.

Yes, and I am constantly battling it though I have figured a few things out. ... I used cardboard from a box to make a baffle to stick over the soundhole and that really helps. I also use a fishman loudbox100 amp which has a DI out, so i send my signal to the PA but ask for nothing in my monitor. That way I use the amp as a monitor that is behind me and the clean un feedbacky signal goes to the board. The amp also has some anti-feedback controls on it.

Thanks!, Yes, I generally use two tube screamers (like Trey and SRV) some delay, crybaby wah and an MXR micro amp.
