	There is a nashville guitarist named "Thumbs" something or
another who, if I recall correctly, puts his guitar on his lap
(like some slide players) and presses down on the frets from above,
somewhat keyboardly. Does anyone know more about him? Does he go
two-handed ala Stanley Jordan?  Are his chops impressive or
noticably different? And by the by, what do you Jordan fans think
of Emmett Chapmann, or other Stickmen?
