Hi, new forum user and new player here. My friend (who plays alto sax) and I are wanting to play Shorter's Black Nile at an upcoming jam session, and we both want to play the melody. However, we were curious about who should play what part on the tune's B section. Should I play the harmony part while my friend plays the main line on sax or vice versa? What's typical? Attached a picture of the relevant section in the sheet music. Thank you.
(Also, obligatory "sorry if this is in the wrong section")
Generally (no hard and fast rule) the sax would take the top line. Thats just because sax will blow guitar out of the water in terms of projection and the top line is usually the melody.
Listen to Miles and Milt Jackson on Bags Groove. Miles plays the melody the first time, while Milt plays the lower line. Then they switch. But whatever miles is playing sounds like the melody because of how much better the instrument cuts through.
So I've now played out with the AF95DA three times with good and improving results. I've done a lot of playing at home and some experimental recording. I've also done some simple adjustments.

The seller is a stand up gentleman, who I have had the pleasure of meeting in person.
I would have no hesitation in doing business with him, which I have in the past.
I can look at it multiple ways. If it had the external speaker jack and they fixed the line out issues I'd sell my fractal and gain a couple thou$and!

I'm a big fan of Guild AAs. The Benedetto builds were great guitars too. I'm not sure why the finish was so thick, but the rest of it was wonderful. A mirror exam showed perfect workmanship too.

I think you're looking at this the wrong way Jack. A Katana 50, especially used, sells for so little and takes so little space that it shouldn't really matter if it's missing some features that...
I find that Quilter amps can be overly bright to be sure, but in a real world gigging situation, I don't seem to hear the brightness (while in my living room, I sure do) and they do seem to "cut"...
