My 2020 Mule steel tricone is the perfect jazz guitar for me. To my ears it is hard to beat a resophonic guitars sound. Tickles the ears like a chorus of bells.
No, it got smashed. If there's any semblance of careful packaging, a fall inside a box wouldn't break off the headstock. The way to protect against that is to ship in a hardshell case, then...
Hi thanks for the comments I sold the original pick guard and tailpiece just have the finger tailpiece for sale. I also went up to 13s with a 14 on the top e and an 18 for the b. This has made a very...
Yes! Still on the lookout for the Elitist and the solid top.
I'm going to take it for a ride today, and we'll see....
So from what I remember from playing a Heritage JS, is that the top and possibly the back is carved thinner than the Gibson version? Also didn’t the fingerboard on the Gibson version go into the...

Looks great Marty. Play in good health. Tight or straight grain in spruce seems to be more of an aesthetic consideration. 4:20
The Milkman 100 is a great amp, and being a "Pedal" amp. it could be used very well in a "no amp" situation where one is going direct into a PA. It is a Class D solid state amp with a tube pre-amp...
Mr.Boulou Ferre follows his own muse in gypsy jazz genre. A unique and gifted talent. Here is a clip you may like. It’s in a bar, after hours, Boulou and Stochelo Rosenberg have a nice, quiet jam. ...
I haven't had a guild reissue on my instruments but I've seen/heard/noodled on one that did and it sounded good. I've heard from people that Guild is doing a very good job with them.
