No DIY for me in this activity. I played several guitars yesterday. All natural finish from nice wood, good necks from Fender and elsewhere, and primarily Seymour Duncan pickups.
Miles Davis once said something about some of the composers who followed in his footsteps to the effect of they bring me this music full of chords… I can’t play it. As interesting as the bebop...
I think Roland stuff is a bit underrated. I’d have no qualms about gigging a cube. The street cubes are broadly similar but with loads of fab features and run off batteries. I use one of their...
Teles of all designs out there are the best options, IMHO, for the tinkerer and DIY guitarist. They're so essentially basic but that allows for a huge number of possibilities. That also means you...
My Roland Cube Street has served me well and it's got a battery powered option. It'd designed as a busker's amp so it's light, rugged and they're easy to find on the used market. Good sound options....
Thanks for the heads up MrFixie. That looks a great example and if it was closer I'd take a look. However at £2k+ it's getting close to 125 territory so I think I'd be better off holding off and...
There’s also definitely times when you want to keep off the bottom strings and play rootless voicings etc as well - some styles sound better that way and it also depends on who you are accompanying. ...
My experience as well. Low end is necessary for solo guitar, but can make mud with the upper register of the bass, the pianist's left hand and even the drums. I find that the setup which is...
one of the nice compliments I got from a bass player is that I know to roll off the bass. It was a gypsy jazz gig but I was on an ES175. Playing swing rhythm on electric you pretty much have to dial...
Blimey that’s not been my experience. People help themselves - at least with acoustic guitars
I've been doing this since the 1980's, a parts-caster guitar is not actually "Building" a guitar, you are just "Assembling" the guitar from parts. It's relatively easy, plenty of online videos and...
Buy a no-brand guitar?
