There’s an Epiphone reissue of that (google Epiphone Thorogood). They’re tough to find, but worth taking a look. An Epi Sorrento is basically the same thing.
I agree! I have two dumble "clones" by amplified nation. The steel string singer is the smooth, clean leader of the dumble herd, I also have an overdrive reverb for rock. Before I got the steel...
I’ve been known to hit that Bb over the F chord. I wouldn’t consider it a key change since it’s just F major over an F major chord, which is diatonic to C. I dunno, I’m also ignorant to all the...
Yeah, makes sense ascending or decending. Very similar vibe to biiidim and its and inversion of biii too. If we wanted to get technical/tangential for a sec, typically Dim chord functions are chosen...
Yep, pedal and tube amp will get you there! OP - welcome to the Forum! You can spend hours over at TheGearPage sifting through threads on amps/pedals for this tone, so lots of options (too...
The guitar tone is your classic Dumble ODS amp tone. There are a number of ways to get that tone. A real Dumble amp $100,000+ A Dumble clone amp $5,000+ A Dumble pedal in front of a Fender...
Using a 6dim scale over its chord can be thought of as two ways: - Harmonizing the scale by using inversions over the chord tones and passing diminished chords over the non-chord tones. - Creating...
Worth mentioning that I don’t think BH would’ve thought of this as tonicizing the ii chord (or IV). It would just be internal motion within the prevailing harmony. Alan and Christian could obviously...
Dear fellow 175 enthousiasts, A few days ago I decided to put a fresh set of Thomastik-Infeld JS112's on my guitar. I also took the time to (finally) fine tune the bridge, since after the 12th fret,...
Makes sense. Especially when descending, right? It would be the bIIIo -> ii motion in inversions.
Thanks for your suggestions. It seems to me that the Gibson ES 125TC I sold some time ago is the best option. Now they're too expensive. Time will tell.
Lastly, but not least, here's an interesting solo version by the man himself. It doesn't bear much resemblance to the tune as it now is but it's probably worth posting. ...
Tonicizing the ii, so not dorian. If you want to keep the voices moving when harmonizing the 6th degree I've found an aux dim works and sounds nice as it keeps the dim sonority (vi dim7). 6th...
Ah, grasshopper.... keep staring and chanting, "fifty nyun, fifty nyun, fifty nyun....." after an hour or two, the subtle mystery will reveal itself. Totally agree on the Collings thing. But I'm...
