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?
Hey JS,
what exactly do you have in mind when you say VST? Is it something like Toontrack EzKeys (EZkeys 2 | Toontrack) that will play midi notes using a piano voice? Toontrack also has something...
Not sure if it the mindset of those that have a strong opinion,
Does color play into the perception
of value…?? it seems that the standard “Authentic” color is the Autumn Burst (?) followed by...
That's awesome. 3 is the max for me right now. For my keys playing If I can get command of improv where I can control the bass, melody, and an inner part, that's advanced enough for me. Obviously...
Oh, I thought you said you wanted the new neck pup to match the look of the existing bridge pup.
Anyways, do you want the new pup to have more body than the Seth, or about the same? That could...
Bobby Stern is a sax player who has many improv lessons for sale on his site.
the thing about his approach is that it is harmonic..and explores his lines in all 12 keys..usually in the cycle of...
^ I'm a fan.
I thought so! My lil $600 Yamaha CP-125 digital piano is a good instrument apparently. Better watch it or I'm gonna buy a vibraphone. I think I would do a good job on focusing on...
Not the power amp stage. That’s an analog class d amplifier
The amps we’re talking about have physical knobs that lower the output of an analog amp. There may a DSP aspect of how it does that...
I lack experience with a wide range of amplifiers, so making a comparison wouldn't be fair. However, I've been using the Blue 6 in both quartet and big band setups, and it performs well (IMHO) in...
I toyed with that this evening. I kind of like how light the maj7 makes it sound, but I put a Dom 7 in there around bar 7-8.
It might be too noodly now.

Thanks very much. I actually use quite a bit of mic’d amp and DI in my mix for the body of the sound with the mike on the guitar mostly addi mg the stringy tizz and acoustic realism. Glad you like...
Yes, it's boxy compared to a Fender. I've done side-by-side comparisons with a friends amp and my Princeton TM, tweaking the tone stack this way and that, and without some sort of assistance from a...
Figured I'd post this here. This is my blonde '89 Emperor that I have modified to be more like a Harmony H-62/Espanada. Since it's a cross between an Emperor and an Espanada, I call it the Empanada...
