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?
New D’Angelico Tours and Premier line have been have been selling at massive discounts in the UK for a while now. Don’t know if anyone has insight into why that might be - I’m assuming people just...
Yes, I remember that guitar, along with Hammertone’s oval hole model. I do recall that the original owner ordered his collection of Campellones with unusual features (an oval hole, a non-cut with no...
Oops, maybe the underwound was a mistake by me then. I was noticing that I keep the Zephyr's Lover humbucker fairly far from the strings and since the Emperor has a lot less height from pickup...
Just repost this here as it was buried in an irrelevant thread. Hope you don’t mind Jeff.

but...I also want to say that it's easy to get complacent if you are editing in your (home) studio because tweaks are simple on the computer. Then you get out on the gig like my situation and realize...
i agree that adjustments on the fly are an issue. I played a club yesterday where my guitar sound was very dark and muddy and the amount of menus and scrolling and paging I have to go through to get...
Hi
It sounds quite good, but nothing like a Princeton. Much more tweed like, and raunchy if you push it.
In my opinion you can do jazz with it, but more in the edge of break up style, like Grant...
Hmm… without never playing with it 7,2k pickup sounds more like brighter and less-bodied than ’mellow’. Based on mere numbers the normal ca. 8k Classics would have some mellowness and body.
But I...
Woland -
I was just wondering, after all our exertions, whether you'd sorted out how you play the bridge of this tune. Whether you'd found your answer, so to speak. That was the point of the...
I agree with the above post: my idea is that for a full warm creamy smooth twin reverb tone you have to push it just a step before it breaks up; to me its right volume level is between 5 and 6.

Has anyone played or had a Supro Amulet ?
