Yes, Fender used to offer the D130F in the Showman and Dual showman cabs, and even as a "factory upgrade" for Fender Twins. The F in the name D130F is for Fender. JBL improved on the design of the...

Is this an overlooked part of Metheny's sound?

Thanks for the offer 2B! We'll see what happens. Looks like if I want to go I'll be driving though, which could put me on Chuckanut at some point, which is always good. Taylor Shellfish! ...

From Seattle to Scotland, Rob I hope your treatment is soon providing you some relief. You’re in my thoughts.

And in this particular case, does it do the Run in more or less parsecs? :doh:

She’s truly a very special Heritage Sweet 16! Light as a feather and plays like butter! It’s great guitar karma that she ends up back with you Mark. Enjoy!

I do wonder if the initial brightness of probably any kind of new string has to do at least in large part with absence of fret wear. Once that sets in strings should behave a lot more like flat or...

What did early Jazz guitarists in America play live pre-swing era?

I have never tried either of those bridges, but the Benedetto bridge looks good and would be my choice between those two. My experience has been that rosewood is slightly warmer than Ebony, but...
