Archtop with tweeter - yay or nay?

Sweetwater has a Reverb type site

For me personally, I handle it quite simple. I stay away from guitars built with parts of Brazilian Rosewood without mentioning a CITES certificate in the description. This makes my life easier...

Brazilian Rosewood and CITES

I crashed with a bike some years ago and got an undislocated radius fracture. I too managed to drive the 10 kilometers home on the bike. And then there was Tyler Hamilton who broke a collar bone...

Playing guitar with a broken clavicle

Very well, but not till I've answered the two points you made. First, the line about Derek Bailey was light-hearted. It was a joke. I was trying to make a humorous contrast. Like saying after Sir...

Welcome here. To answer your questions, guitar amps with a transistor power amp can usually accept a speaker impedance between 4 - 16 ohms. Same will be the case for the Yamaha amps. Also, the...

Yamaha G100-II / G50-II impedance matching

I don't think he cared for the EEJP. Did he ever record with it?

Did Joe Pass NOT care much for his Ibanez JP20??

I wouldn't worry about the plexus nerve block - that stuff works, and the chances of closed reduction for many of these "boxer" fractures are good. The timing of the operation is ok: most fractures...

Playing guitar with a broken clavicle

That definitely wasn't the case with my Fenix FAE8. It was a duff AZ pickup. A budget Ibanez pickup from an AF84e solved the problem.

Cure for a weak high E string?

That's a great post Mick. I just started a thread for the official study group for the book. Would you mind posting this post in there? Just to keep everything in one place. Thank you

You started that poll in 2015. Nobody has commented since March last year. I would not call it current. And the jazz world is a lot wider and a lot more modern than this forum. I would not put money...

Wynton vs Herbie 1985

I think he’s just using very heavy strings. At least 13’s. The sound is though the strings are very high tension. Peoples idea of these guitars sounding thin is not true imo. For a start, all...

Did Joe Pass NOT care much for his Ibanez JP20??

You wrote, "I don't know, maybe David Baily went home, put on some Beethoven, breathed a sigh of relief, and smiled the evening away happily." I take that to mean you think he was insincere. And...

Were did Joe Pass’s D’aquisto’s go?

Did Joe Pass NOT care much for his Ibanez JP20??

Maybe, but it certainly appears the current Forum members know what they like. If you had to pick one jazz style?

Wynton vs Herbie 1985

Arnold's rendition is rather tame. In Barry Galbraith's version, he plays a symmetrical voicing in bar 6th that is cool: 6th Bar: Am11: x-x-0-5-5-3-x >> D7(alt): x-6-7-7-7-x >>...
