I know I'm old... but back in the late 60's and 70's.... I mean who didn't use on a, ex. G7#9... G Ab Bb B C D Eb F F# G .... Fret pattern low 6th string up. Usually with Pent patterns and...
The other day, the "thunk" on a 6th string sounded a bit too dead. So I changed the strings. But I'm wondering whether that's just my ear saying: "Dude: Modify your right hand or try a different...
I really like Bill Jennings, how he makes the notes pop, sooo good! I didn't know he used Dynasonics on a Duo Jet. The picture on the cover of the Complete Bill Jennings has him playing what looks...

Has the owner's manual been helpful in trying to zero in on the sound you want? Here's a couple of points I found interesting: Input: "Normally you’ll connect to the HIGH input. If your guitar has...
I've done many café and restaurant gigs, and remember one woman saying to me after two hours of playing and being talked over: "Can't you play anything we can all sing?" To which I replied. "I hope...
Yeah, trying to call this a new "scale" seems to put equal weight on everything, or that every note can be used the same way... It's just playing over a dominant...I mean, what notes DON'T work?
