And there are many C Lydian voicings with open strings - more than any other chord if you count Am7 & Em7 voicings.
Bluegrass players, almost without exception, will put the strap button at position 5 on their dreads. My first archtop, an Eastman AR905CE, had the strap button at position 1. I really like it,...
I have a Ruck 2010 classical with a sound port. Ruck provided wooden plugs so you can plug the hole and tell the difference. There is a huge difference in the sound you're hearing as a player. ...
This isn’t what you asked, but I’ve had an AR810CE for 17 years and I never put a strap button on it. I thought about it many times but it’s never been a priority. Wes Montgomery, Grant Green, Barney...
On a daily basis I’m often switching from classical/flamenco necks with wide FB’s to my Tele, with a moderately full C, to the full D of my Martin, to my archtops which have a moderate D. Plus, the...

I have Martin's duo course. It's great. He makes it look effortless. We refer verbally to the course during our duo practice ( I took notes and discussed with singer ).
I've only played with an organist about twice, and long ago. Just hit me that you guys were tweaking all those switches and stops long before us guys had all the dang stomp boxes!
A functional-harmony perspective might name the note according to how it resolves: #11 resolves up, b5 resolves down. Of course this won't apply in all situations. Case in point: jazz uses a lot...
So true about first fret. Knowing that just helps us gauge how much taper. My Lehmann is only about 1/32 thicker at 9 than the Borys. But it only tapers about 1/32 down to fret 1 and feels much much...
