        Everyone loves Molly Tuttle, and occasionally she does a video for the benefit of her fellow musicians. If you don’t yet know how to do cross-picking, try what Molly demonstrates here. It’s easier than you think, but it sounds amazing:

          The variety of ways to play this instrument is remarkable.
          Great video, thanks Steve.

            Very cool Steve. The end product sounds more like 2 guitars.

              Great resource Steve!
              From a lovely lady and beautiful player. Thanks for sharing. This will come in handy as I try to find ways to ‘spice’ up my acoustic play.
