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?
125's like that are great guitars.
I own one of the earliest mid-40's models, and it's a wonderful guitar. Those P90's should come with a warning for players with pacemakers! Serious magnets.
The last amp I really liked was the Fender 68 Custom Vibro Champ Reverb. I had to change all the tubes right away since 2 out of 3 where faulty. I heard a lot of owners report the same issue. After...
I put a StewMac Parsons Street humbucker in the neck slot of my MiK Broadway and love it. Then I put a Seymour Duncan PhatCat (?) --the P90 in the Humbucker form factor--in my Zephyr Regent...
I looked at the pickup openings and it looked solid. There is a strip of thin wood under the bridge, but not under the whole top.
And I played my EEB and my L5ces alongside an Aria Pro II PE180...
I love Ben Webster. I have never heard any guitar player approach what Webster does. Regardless of the instrument played, Webster was a unique, individual talent.
I do hear the slight similarity...
I just took a Quick Look at prices in the UK and the rest of Europe and the prices seem normal The Tours & Premier is like Squire or Epiphone they are designed to get you into the guitar market in...
