It certainly can be overwhelming, but it doesn't have to. To solo: You need a song to play. You need to be able to scat sing a solo you like. You need to be able to play that solo on the...
I’ll just chime in quickly for now. Hammertone and Deacon have covered the bases pretty well. It’s really down to the individual guitar. Which exact species of woods are used (maple vs mahogany...
LOL, maybe the guitar in the Reverb ad was actually owned by Michelle Bloomfield, no relation to Michael. :)
Yes, but entirely depending on the individual instrument and what your ears prefer. As mentioned, the differences between Gibson's 17" carved archtops are almost entirely cosmetic. However,...
As a rule, the harder the material the brighter the sound. So everything else being equal... steel will be brighter.
To elaborate … he’s asking how to conceptualize or handle that section of the tune. It doesn’t matter what chords go there in whichever variation, because it’s “we’re getting back to One.”

I am pretty happy with this, once I got over the listing photos I am not concerned about non-originality. That helps keep it a keeper. I'm more concerned about my GAS this year. I have not...
I think I understand what you're asking, but it would help to write out the exact changes you're considering, because the tune is played in different ways. If you're looking at Bb7 / Eb(major...

My 63 175 and 2005 L5CES were literally on my doorstep but I will have to travel to try these other instruments. I wouldn't purchase them without trying them. There is a '47 ES300 near me but it's...
What I’m saying … it’s the same form
From a players' perspective, many times the same luthiers, the same or more modestly figured wood, or the amount of trim (and time it takes to incorporate it) were the determining factours in the...
Cool old ES-150 with every piece of hardware replaced. All you need is a P-90 pickup riser, allowing the whole pickup to be raised and the six polepiece screws to be lowered, and you're off to...
I don't know how to go about learning jazz anymore
