Max, you'll have my full respect. I was ridin' motorcycles for about 20 years without a car as backup (later I could afford a car :smile-new:) I know...
Memory gaps can be really annoying, it's interesting how that works, seems there has to be a mnemonic landmark for recall to occur. For example, the...
This all the way^. My bro drums for me and is the guy who I usually do the head butting with. I can't complain though, I have great guys in my group,...
Listen to and study Johann Sebastian Bach’s “Six Suites for Unaccompanied Cello”. The music is very “cinematic” in much the same way that most great...
Very early in my electric guitar journey I almost bought a Firebird (which sounded great), but the downside was obvious even to clueless teenage me,...
That's Jean-Paul 'Bluey' Maunick, one of the founders of Incognito (to the left of Charlie, playing the wine-colored Tele-like axe through a JC-120)...
That Swatch looks kind of cool though. When I was briefly interested in one of the new D'A semi-hollows, which I thought looked really neat and well...
i've had both. I like the 200 a lot better. I was kind of shocked at how prone to feedback the 300 was. I had an LGB-30 and actually liked the sound...
I definitely put the click on every beat... sometimes usually. It depends what I'm working on. When I'm working on sight reading I will put the click...
I’m a standard stan all day, but there’s a few players I know who play bass excellently and guitar really well too and they use P4 like all the bass...
I have indeed! When I first started trying out guitar playing I did tune that way, reasoning that I only wanted to play jazz so the lack of standard...
All the newer D angelicos i've played have been good guitars. My one concern would be the guitar sounding thin, without much low mids and having too...
I’ll be up for Miss Ann. Cool head and I don’t really know anything like it, so it would be good for me. It’s not really bebop anymore at that point,...
Seems like an arcane association to me, I would just think of it as G Locrian since that's what it is (with nat. 6th added = the 3rd of C7) and Gm7b5...
Nah, it wasn't the KK (it was spelled Keystone Korner as in Keystone Kops because there was a police station across the street from it. :nonchalance:...
Now that I've been in BH class I understand the wisdom of viewing it this way, rather than translating it into a base scale. Something about it that...
When I was much younger I suffered under the bizarre delusion that Kenny had just ordinary chops, nothing special. Then one night I saw him with his...
Here is KB with his custom L-7 he let WM borrow, along with his Fender Deluxe amplifier for WM’s first record. This is an article out of VG magazine...
This next topic on the agenda is horizontal (up/down the fingerboard) vs. vertical (across the fingerboard) fingering of scales and phrases. The pdf...
My bottleneck is technical skills. So what I mean by targeting is being able to play solo fluently in med and med up tempos without my hands seizing...
Was looking at Wes records and saw this on the back of the cannonball poll winners record with Ray Brown. He’s pictured on the back playing a guitar...
