It's the turnaround bar, which would normally head back to G6. Now, the notes of G6 are GBDE. If we put the E first: EGBD we have Em7, for which B7...

Cool, always wanted to do something like that but yeah, now i have kids haha. Tele would be a no brainer. With all the others I would constantly...

I also vividly recall seeing him back in 1982 ... on his album cover.

Well I was hoping it might explain the difference between the two conceptions. Basically Barry added note scales are further reaching, and also more...

How is the neck on your Eastman Dm1, more on the thick side? One thing I have a hard time to cope with on many Gypsyy guitars is the huge neck. I...

The idea with the Original one posted from Stew Mac is to not have to remove pick guard or neck to adjust.:o

Thanks, I'm glad you liked it.

I actually think for musicians there was a Golden Era. When musicians actually were involved in the creative process . But for those of you who were...

I get that the Kingpin has a cheap "student" instrument vibe. And there are some aspects of its construction that I don't love (but do tolerate). ...

Not yet. I'm working on it. Spoiler alert... Not jazz.:grumpy:

These work for me and are usually free at the paint store. Bonus: You may use it to open a beer before adjusting your truss rod.

Sorry, I didn't mean to scare you :D I don't really like amazon but it was super easy to order from japan. Add to cart, credit card and done.

There is a lot more to reading than that.

Are the remnants online?

Dear M, As I clearly stated, he is unusual.

I like smaller/parlor guitars. Having small hands, they suit me especially well. I have a Martin, a Taylor, a Gretsch and a KL?S. The PRS looks...

dug that take from Martino, thanks. Great lines and chromatics! (Must have been a pupil of with Barry Harris)

Haha, that doesnt sound promising!

I use the D'Addario 11-52, the heavier bass string gives the chords a fuller sound in the Tele's. Cheers, Arnie...

I think they sound great, but if you like shiny objects, I guess get an Ibanez?

i imported a few times lp's from japan and the easiest was amazon.co.jp :rolleyes:

interesting, what do you mean by 6 3 and 5 3 cords...are these the intervals above the base?

It's a Sadowsky semi-hollow.

Off topic: This is something I’m every interested in doing! Does anyone have any recommendations?

I thought Russell had moved to Atlanta? I know he had listed a few guitars for sale at a local shop here in NJ. I wonder what guitar hes playing here.

I don't even listen to all my own stuff (most of which has been lost, and what little remains is either ahead or behind its time). :redface-new:

He starts with the C chromatic scale. This assumes we are all in the same boat ie using the major 7th scale and adding accidentals to taste. So...

Just get a decent one made, or buy a better quality metal tailpiece, made by ABM. Not that hard to find.

Fantastic story, thanks for dharing that. Painted a nice picture....a time capsule
