Personally, I love my LJ. I also have a DV "Silver Gen/Guitar Friend" (currently discontinued), which is basically a Jazz 12 + a distorsion/drive...

Let us know if you buy anything. I’m very envious.

Cool, yeah. Both of those make sense. Thank you!

Wonderful to get back to hear you. You have your signature style and take all needed time to your unique musical expression. I wonder if your solo...

I’ve had my Romeo for one and a half weeks now so still early days. I need to spend much more time with it. First impressions are that it is a...

Oh no, I still use that for my live concerts. I will also use it for live in a proff recording studio. I actually have one more if it should fail,...

Do you know what I'm telling you? I ordered the DV MARK Jazz 12 and it will arrive at my house in two days! Whoa..

Great post! And don't forget the recording mediums used back then as well... for example, anyone chasing Charlie Christian's tone has never REALLY...

For sure it has to be aligned, but my concern was that I couldn't grasp such a mistake. So I got scared that realligning would cause more damage....

In order to get the strings properly on aligned on theneck, the tailpiece has to be reallocated. One might wonder why the previous owner never...

When someone is chasing the classic Jazz Guitar Sounds of the the 50's and 60's it's only logical that they're looking at all the tube-driven...

Wow! That is pretty much my dream guitar - a blond, single pickup L5CT. I'm jealous and incredibly happy for you, at the same time! Are you able...

Alternatively you could try F7 up - F melodic minor up - C major up - Ab7 up Just speculating, no instrument at hand ATM. It is probably...

Tube amps do sound good when the power section is pushed. I dunno know if it's just that I'm unlucky or finicky about sound but in practical terms I...

Uffe !!! You gave up your little cherished mini Fender amp ????:Cry:

I've only put 2 sets of TI Jazz Swings on. One time no trouble, last time a little. Low E ball isn't fully seated. Sticks out slightly more than the...

It's a good way to amass vocabulary. It's tempting in studying a solo to 'hear between the lines' b/c personal 'tics' (e.g.: certain slurs,...

Power Tubes being pushed is what people like along with driving the preamp. I think the answer is to have a smaller amp like a Fender Deluxe but...

I use the acoustic amp model.The problem with device's like the Spark Mini is that sometimes you spend more time exploring all the choices rather...

In my world, the answer is a strong and definite: yes… followed by saying, “no doubt”.

Those are excellent questions. I wish I had great answers. I do not. When it comes to latency, it is not bothering me. I think I notice a little....

Make that $14.5k net to him. Again, nothing goes to me and I will cover shipping almost anywhere in the world. Sent from my iPhone using...

The tailpiece anchor is currently mounted right in the center of the range. Your description of smoother, softer, and less piercing is spot on. It...

Can't say I've had much luck with this, but lowering the pickup and raising the polepieces is supposed to help. The explanation is that it allows the...

if you're only playing at home the PR should be more than enough. if you get it and don't think so return it and get a DR, yeah it'll have more bass...

After trying so many speakers, what do you use in your Princeton Amp?

My 1966 Princeton reverb has the stock jensen c10 . Sounds glorious. I have put 12’s in for some people and it does sound good. But a good ten...

So how would the scales lay out across the middle four measures? F7 | Fm | G6 | Gb6? … or maybe A7 and Ab7 instead of G6 and Gb6?

You needs sebral units for until find out. C12K | Jensen Loudspeakers

1 11/16"

He's really good. I haven't seen too much chord melody with a pick before, can't wait to dig more into his discogrophy.

Many Fenders will get you there, twin reverb, vibrolux, deluxe reverb, princeton reverb, super reverb. There is really no absolute best, as it is a...

Problem is I dont know if the 12" deluxe has better bass, and better sound even at low volumes. Not "better", but more to my liking. Sure theyre both...

G'day 404 .. and others that have kindly offered advice . I like the Jazzy Joe... much more scope of tone and some extra volume as well ... I'm...

I agree with some of this, and disagree with the rest. For the record, I own a 1966 Deluxe Reverb, a 1966 Princeton (no reverb) and a Victoria Ivy...

Thank you. I have been there a few times before but it's always great to have another look around.

At the risk of looking like an idiot I've occasionally watched mediocre TV. I have chastised partners for reading pablum books yet here I am,...

Wise choice. There’s no downside here. Try it out and you can swap it out if it’s not right for you. It’s a great amp and perfect for home use. ...

Great! It's a beautiful record.

I have ordered a a Princeton reverb! But I can return it if I want to. Ive read that the deluxe will sound better (especially in the bass) due to the...

Hey everyone! I see almost all of you took the time to recommend some really great artists. I have listened to most of what has been recommended...

Actually, so far your album recommendation is like my favorite jazz record I have heard! Thanks so much

thank you!!

Sounds like I need to listen to a lot more RnB than I was anticipating. Thank you for your post!

Looking into it now! Thank you!

I really appreciate that you avoided bebop. I actually quite like the record you posted a lot. I realize that I could have been a lot better at...

Carved solid top. Lacquer finish. B

Hey sorry, I think I am late to seeing this. I come from a hip-hop background mostly. Any jazz songs I have found have been from samples, but i...

love this standard so much too! Thank you for the suggestion.

Thank you for the suggestion. This is a name i have never heard before so I am adding him to my playlist right now!

I have heard of jim hall before, i'll give them both a proper listen. thank you!

This seems like a good suggestion, I'll give it a listen. And the "who cares" answer is that I would really like to get into jazz! :)

Thanks for the help! I could only find one album with him on spotify, but I liked it a lot!

My experience with this movable tailpiece-anchor on my old Borys and my new Trenier has been this : moving the thing DOWN resulted in a brighter tone...

Yes! Bloomdido is a pretty close example of that variation. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Hi Pingu My pleasure. I´d like to hear how it goes with the pod

wow , mmmm that’s tight !

The Father, Son and Holy...... oh never mind.

Carved arched solid spruce top or flat solid spruce top?

What's the nut width on this one?

maybe put a graphic eq in front of it ? these are ok apparently and worth a try for very little dough Behringer EQ700 – Thomann UK

the FON has a V prefix indicating 1956

Ok what makes you think it is 1956 ?

oops repeat

Beat Club have posted more footage from the same session.

yes I’m thinking of getting a Spark Mini …. for around the house and quiet stuff without drums

very good to know which amp ‘model’ do you use for jazz ? I’m hope to use it round the house , for lessons , for busking and maybe for a quiet...

Bump -this is also listed on Reverb but I would like to sell here to avoid all the fees, and you would like to buy here to avoid all the taxes!

I often use or play with others who use the Jazz 12 in the backline at the club in which I'm the house band leader. And I had a LJ for about 2 years...

Fascinating. I never heard that term before, but the definition definitely fits! Sent from my SM-G998U using Tapatalk

I find it hard to believe that the 12 sounds the same as the Lj! They are two speakers of different sizes, the 12 should have a fuller, warmer...

I think its called the folk process its happening in classic jazz tunes already

Glad i could help.I only have mine for a short time but it's worth every penny.There was another thread on here asking if you could get a good jazz...

In Bird blues you'll typically hear turnarounds played like the standards: iii VI | ii V or Imaj7 VI | ii V.

"Bird Blues" as I know it (I think they called it "Swedish Blues" back then), e.g. "Blues for Alice", is rather different from what I described...

It’s about the process, not the result

There is no circular fan cage in either (the early LJ had one). I read that they moved the fan. I've never heard it in either amp. Also, in...
