I have a '52 reissue blackguard that sounds amazing. It took me longer than it should have, but I finally figured out how to squeak some quality tones out of the 'ol cutting board. This got me...
Same form but multiple variations. It's the variations that alter the tone of the piece.
Hi Everyone, I'd like to get this guitar to a new home before my upcoming move, so I am dropping the price here and on Reverb until someone takes it home. Please drop me a line if you're...

I am pretty happy with this, once I got over the listing photos I am not concerned about non-originality. That helps keep it a keeper. I'm more concerned about my GAS this year. I have not...
I think I understand what you're asking, but it would help to write out the exact changes you're considering, because the tune is played in different ways. If you're looking at Bb7 / Eb(major...
