I haven't had any problem with the springs. But I almost never use a bridge pickup, so the selector switches on the 2 PU guitars I've had remain set on neck for most of their lives with me. As a...
Nice axe! I had a red '03 that I let go a couple years ago because I liked my Edwards more, mainly because the slim taper on the 333 required constant adjustment and I could never get the action...
Did not know it had a block under the bridge. In that case for a pure jazz box I would not be incline to go that route. Learn something new everday. Thought is was straight hollowbody but a block...
Matches Lorne Lofsky's description of of him, said he was a hard man with whom to have a conversation, he'd give a one sentence reply to every remark. At first he thought perhaps he was only that...
The specs on these two are pretty different. The Guild has a block under the bridge, a second, pickup and thinner body, so it shades a bit toward a semi-hollow. The Fender is a full depth archtop,...
Well I was going to mount a Krivo, but I thought I'd try this first. Audio Technica 8531 mic system into an Xvive wireless transmitter. It sounds great. And to boot, the whole thing fits in both...
I can vouch for Buzz Levine's integrity as a dealer, having bought from, sold to, and consigned with him over many years. (AND ... he's Duke Levine's brother!) He has been in the business for about...
Sounds like you're becoming an involuntary authority on the subject, rpjazzguitar. :eek: I have been taking Glucosamine/Chondroitin/MSM (organic sulfur) for mild knee osteoarthritis, and the pain...
Oh yes he will Tbf I found functional theory EXTREMELY useful for understanding changes. Im glad I learned it. There’s two sides as I see it 1) how harmonies move 2) what you can stack on a...
I think most folks commenting on the thread don’t favor modal nomenclature though? The closest is Jimmy and, if I’m reading him correctly, he’s not even really saying he prefers it — just that he...
You will undoubtedly regret this
Yeah, I mean you don’t have to slur that much. That’s a separate approach. I don’t really play that way. But incorporating slurs in lines in a way that’s informed by horn articulation is the most...
Thanks! I had forgotten how much I liked him. The sax solo is the model of simplicity and eloquence, not necessarily in that order.
To me this is not an easy choice they are different but can do the same thing. The Guild has 2 pickups that might be great for some but not for me. The Guild looks sharp nice flame and gold. The...
