["greg williams" <gregorwilliams@comcast.net>]

Hi Ted,
Thanks for the referral and cudos. I'll respond to Jeff tonight or 
tomorrow;
it will take some minutes of thought to respond.

I really respect how often and thoughtfully respond to newbies man
(including myself). 

~Greg

Jeff,

Specific to your question I would whole-heartedly direct you to looping
guitarist and LD member Greg Williams.

His stuff is on MySpace at: http://www.myspace.com/gregwilliamsguitarist

He's a fine player, composer and performer -- as evidenced by his great set
a the Y2K7 Loopfest in Santa Cruz this past October.

There are plenty of others on the list though too.

I am strictly a finger-picker myself  -- only I don't play acoustic much
these days.

My music is very, VERY far away from the days when I was a would-be Leo
Kottke/Merle Travis imitator -- about as far away as one could possibly 
get.

Andy Butler is a phenomenal looper guitarist who sometimes plays acoustic 
--
I think even with "classical" technique of sorts.

I'd mention some others but I am not sure if they are plectrum users or
finger-pickers.

At least that's a start.
