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?
Thanks for all the thoughts. On the recording, I don’t think it sounded bad, just not what I was expecting, as PaulN pointed out.
What I gather from your comments and thinking about it some more...
The Fishman is my go-to gigging amp because it is light, loud, has decent reverb and chorus, has a sweepable midrange filter to tame feedback/wolf tones, and rather flat frequency profile. Oh, and it...
I have built my lo-power Tweed Twin from a kit with upgraded Heyboer transformers. I run it with the 12AY preamp tubes as per Leo's original design and add a touch of reverb through either a Strymon...
That's the problem right there. Never mind Real book charts, how many versions have you listened to? And how many have the additional line? If hardly any, that's your answer. Because nobody uses it.
thanks. That contrast is one of my favorite things. When discussing stain and finish with Tom R, there was an option to go with something reddish that would minimize the different wood tones or the...
More like a debate. While with an acoustic instrument you might still get some sort of consensus how it sounds best, how could you possibly hope for that with an electric instrument that doesn't...
JM touching perfection..and great amp/effects..
The sheet music for this tune is a great study in slash chords and harmonic movement.
To me this is magical/mystical music. Its in the...
The technical term for what's going on with "genre" is called lexical ambiguity or polysemy--multiple senses for a single word. Singer-songwriter (or singer-songwriter-guitarist, SSG) is a "genre" in...
If your looking at the D'Ang B you might want to consider the Guild T50. I just got a Dynasonic model, quite happy. allusedguitars on ebay (yeah i know...) still has a couple open box for $750. Not...
