he's great sounds like a bluesy Pat Martino !

Cool! Keep us posted!

Lovely! You keep good company, too. :smile-new:

Don't let it get you down! At least you don't have to tie a scrunchy around the neck. It's a lame look.

Verbally, both dropping and inversion may function as either a verb (as something you do to the chord) or an adjective (something you notice about...

@ruger9, that‘s really all?

Everything makes sense if you look at it mechanically. With multiple instruments like a horn section, the arrangement often places the melody line...

It probably is Barry. They recorded it after the film came out, and Barry was first call for everything, so maybe they couldn't get BB for the...

This is from an ad on DHgate ; sells for AUD $399. They don't have a headstock image on this particular sellers page though. Cheers

Thank you, JBN! I now see how the #11 becomes the 5th and what a great sound that is. I think instinctively that's what I've been doing on the B7#11...

yeah man...that's the breakdown straight from Joe D...marvelous! that epi glows! cheers

I dig that worn ebony model! I might have to finally pull the trigger on a casino now.

Circa 1970 Guild CA100. Carved top and the rims are less than 3 inches IIRC. Most came with dearmonds. Not hard to find at 1500--1800 dollars. TBH...

Very nice, indeed!

She's earned it. Not jazz but a really good player on both electric and acoustic. Her last album is first rate with an incredible band.

Thanks for the suggestion, it's an interesting idea. A quick search turned up a single cutaway, called the Songbird, which is only 1-7/8" thick (and...

Thanks for posting these, Steve. I agree entirely with you and Wintermoon. Larry is the best. A completely trustworthy dealer, who also happens to...

The flame in the wood on the Tal is fantastic - especially the back. I don’t know about the knobs , but overall a beautiful example. I hear a few...

Looks like a premium quality guitar. The body is indeed smaller than average at 14-3/4" wide, but at 3-3/8" it is not a thinline body. In any event,...

Great tune, was a favorite of some of my jam friends back in NYC. Great album. Sam Rivers was incredibly melodic even though he was an "out"...

I agree with Wintermoon. It sounds like a roughly even trade. If you’d play the ES-275 more, it seems like a sensible trade.

I'm guessing the covers were corroded by the outgassing guard, hence the replacements, but otherwise a beautiful example of an orig Tal, though I...

Wow - that’s great Wintermoon. I remember my Mandolin Brother visits going back to the 80’s - a fun place. Larry is a good friend of mine as well. ...

A treasure trove of ideas for you to analyze, transmute and put into your tool box. Don't use anything until you see what's going on and you've...

I saw that Tal and agree about him, one of the most knowledgeable dealers. ps Larry's a friend of mine too, going back to his Mandolin Bros days

What a fantastic record. I was listening to this and "Contours" a lot this week...its what sparked this choice.

Matchy-matchy!

Posted yesterday by Ibanez Lari Basilio - Sunny Days (Ibanez LB1) - YouTube

Is usual from Ibanez, nothing left handed..

Last post from me .. I promise! .. I have no idea who Lari is ... but that is an absolute blast of a guitar .. Love it!

I must have been impressed enough to buy a Sam Rivers record, still got it (and Beatrice is on it):

Guild made some sort of acoustic thin line double cutaway back in the 1990s Even though it's a flat top it might do what you your looking for?

That’s a nice tune, always meant to play it but never got round to it. As it happens, the very first jazz concert I ever went to was Sam Rivers,...

Never heard it, never even heard OF it, so this will be fun!

or just poke a phone through the f hole

considering the changed tuners on your guitar it's a pretty fair trade and narrow nut Gibson's can be a tough sell. the 275 you're considering is a...

I'm collecting one of these tomorrow! My first Ibanez.

Just splendid! I've enjoyed your playing ever since I bought Amphora! That was back in the old Usenet rec.guitar.jazz group days!

Yes, I recognise that tone (without the EQ) from mine! I do like it a lot! My ES-125 sounds sooo woody and thunky through it (yes time for a...

You might also consider an Ibanez George Benson model (GB10). It has a smaller body and floating pickups.

nice Mark!

Nice suggestions in this thread! Amazon now has more of my money.

I could be wrong but I read it's $USD 3,500.

Kinda reminds me of the old Jolly Green Giant. But in the words of that great philosopher, Kermit the Frog: "Its not easy being green."
