To be honest, I'm not among the 200K plus watchers of this thread. Yet, I'd like to identify the guitar in this latest post. The cutaway doesn't look like anything I've seen on a Gibson, and I've seen a few.
This is my Super-400 CES from 1963 with the sharp/florentine cutaway. Gibson originally did them like this along with the ES-350T, Byrdland and L-5 CES from ca. 1962 until ca. 1968 . Not many were made and you see them used by Kenny Burrell, Wes, Larry Corryell, George Benson, Pat Martino and a few others. Very expensive nowadays .... The one in this clip is a new custom made model, a one-off and most probably not cheap either !
Man oh man, those Jun Satsuma videos have, to my ears, some of the most luscious electric jazz guitar tones I've ever heard. Especially the sunburst Super. What a fine player on the standards, too. So nice.

In practicing this morning i realized getting as comfortable as possible at my age was a priority.In order to spend any amount any time.And once again i noticed my picking hand/arm/shoulder had slide away from the pick up.I have be wondering in frustration what happen to a tone i use to get at times for like a month.And a few minutes ago i eureka!!!! I moved my hand/arm/shoulder up toward the pickup and there it was.Now my question is ,is my ear fooling me.mind you its a (a really nice,if there was any off ) 2015 Eastman 403 playing unplugged!Another question should this be in technique section.I figured getting optimal sound it would go here?
I too looked at that guitar but really too much for a Wine Red. I see just now it is on hold. I would not pay this for a wine red but possibly a Sunburst. I don't see the color itself having any...
Those are very nice guitars. There used to be some good used shops in Madison, and there was a guy in La Crosse who used to be Dave's main guitar tech and had started his own repair and vintage...
Here's an L5 you don't see every day. Not sure what to think of it. The pickguard def. has to go! :-)

A friend of mine, Buck Wilkerson, with whom I used to play frequently, died two years ago. His widow contacted me recently to see if I could help her get rid of some of the guitars he left behind (he...

Here are a couple of original pieces I am working on.
