Sir, this is a guitar forum.

The Notated Lick Compendium.

Well I think so too, but you try telling them that haha. A lot of kids who've been in the system since a young age, too. And not everyone is like this obviously, and many grow out of it. But many...

Analysing jazz vocabulary

I am not great but decent at sight-singing from some time in a chorus. But if I don't sing it out loud I won't hear it that well in my head. And that is sometimes inconvenient if I am at say work.

When you're reading a part that is supposed to mesh with the horns, it's essential to be really accurate. Notes need to stop, and end, at the right instant. As Allen pointed out, the chart may...

Frank Vignola's Guitar Night, an ongoing concert and livestream series

Thanks for the reply and clarifications. I still think even if you're at an elite conservatoire it's still worth putting the effort in even if it's likely you won't turn professional. I agree that...

Funny, I just had this very conversation with Kent Armstrong yesterday. He was adamant that pole pieces should be lowered never raised. He said raise the pickup to the overall level your after and...

Humbucher height?

I got a piano woohoo

Thanks! That’s what the tech said too. Sometimes that makes sense. For me it was distortion on everything between the 4th and 9th fret. That was before I removed the bridge pickup. Then It stopped...

No that's not what I am saying. I think you misunderstand the context, I'll try to explain. Classical music undergrad students at elite conservatoires (as opposed to say, university music...

Bump for a gorgeous guitar!

1991 Gibson ES-175 Ebony

I'm not that worried about it. I've seen this all before in 80's Japan. People lost their minds with spending habits. The economy crashed in the early 90's and Japan was never the same. I think a...

For those who went to music school, was it worth it?

Hmm, I see that they usually use the same stock photo for each model but these are all used guitars so you'd think they'd be different. Their descriptions are often laughable, e.g., "Neck condition:...

An Archtop Tribute 330 type with mini-hums

Agreed, the Barber EQ is a great pedal. Hope it can go to someone who will use it a lot. Giving this another bump.
