• "Paul plays everything I play, plus harmony!"

  - Chet Atkins, cgp

   

• "I've never heard anyone sound so much like Chet in my life. Great pickin' Paul!"

  -Jerry Reed

   

• "Thanks so much for doing this great book on Paul Yandell. Everyone needs to know what I know. He is the best thumb picker out there, period! In addition to his incredible compositions, he is absolutely the living authority on Jerry Reed and Chet Atkins. He is a treasure."

   -Steve Wariner

   

• "Paul Yandell is one of the greatest guitarists in the world. He is a masterful fingerstylist, and just a wonderful all around guitar player. It is no wonder he spent so many years on stage standing right next to Chet Atkins. Everyone needs to know what a great writer/composer and arranger he is too. Thanks to Craig and this book, that is now easier! "
