Hi,

Oliver Gannon, and congratulations, for your appointment to the Order of Canada. I didn't realize a distinguished guitarist was working on this program.

I'm a guitarist, as well.

I'm still on BIAB 2014 { I own 2017, but reverted back}

My problem with Biab in general is it's "not very guitar friendly." { at least up to 2017}

I'm not talking about additions like real tracks, video , etc - which look helpful in their own right. }

After playing rock, blues , pop guitar, even fusion, for years, { occasionally with some name cats} I determined- Biab doesn't play like a guitarist plays.

As I'm sure you know- a guitarist adds all kind of partial chord structures { like on the 4th , 5th }, etc. A guitarist adds , I guess you call it pre -beats, off beats, etc. ] These are basically mandatory to a lot of styles.

{ adding styles from the program list, I find is zero help for this as well }

These guitar friendly options are not currently in the program , [ to my knowledge.]

Will this ever be IN the program?

thanks,



Congratulations Oliver Gannon again, and thanks.
