Peter, thanks for this. Might you give an example of one or two of his rules?
The “CookBook” album is the one that bragged me years ago. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cNb-5pBBL_g
I also started with classical guitar and while initially I was thinking about arch-tops, I actually went for a Telecaster as my first electric because, as they say, it really can do it all! Recently,...
I "think" that the first digit is the year from Samick. My JP is one of my fave watch the tube and play.

The OP mentioned Tom Echols’ “labyrinth” teachings. It may be worth pointing out that Echols does not fully adopt Barry’s terminology — for example he prefers #5 to b6 in naming the ‘extra’ note in...
