Such a difference between the clips just two months ago in the beginning of the thread! It's really inspiring me to practice this style, being so hip to listen to. One thing that I believe comes...

The Summer of Rhythm Guitar 2024

Just did a quick Autumn Leaves to show how I would personally use this sound. There's no denying it's 'raised eyebrows' but I do like it. Stream Underpigs by Christianm77 | Listen online for free...

Maj7 arpeggio over Dom7 chord question

Thomastik 12s are too light, and plinky on the E and B. Put on a Daddario 13 and 17 and it sounds much better, although hard to bend. I’m going to try Chrome 12s next, then Thomastik 13s (Epiphone...

String gauge on your archtop?

It may affect the tone. I would recommend doing it, and seeing whether you like it better. It's easily reversible, so if you don't like it in series you can return it to parallel, no harm no foul.

Rewiring the cab

Cool! That’s one fine guitar. And I love that you used a condenser instead of a capacitor. You need a bumper sticker that says “My tone cap is a condenser!”

I like the philosophical direction that this thread has taken. Of course, what piece of gear is perfect and what can be improved is quite subjective. Sometimes I think Wes had the right attitude- the...

How do you feel about modelers?

Yeah these conversations always come back to vocabulary. I always like to think of the opening phrase in Wes’s Misty solo.

Maj7 arpeggio over Dom7 chord question

None of it sounds right unless you understand how to phrase. People over concentrate on harmony at the early stages. There are no hip notes, just as there are no wrong notes. There's good players and...

Krivo Pickup

I remember a before and after Stella for me. It's a hard tune and it took me a while to be ok with it. I'm still exploring it.

Could there be 1 tune that teaches you 90% of all jazz?

If I'm not mistaken it's Dyens's "tango en skai" so I wasn't wrong that it sounds French. It could be a tango formally but depending on how/by whom it's played it may not sound that way ...
