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 always care about neck shape and size being somewhat ambidextrous,and writing with my left hand. Playing a right handed I’m sensitive to the feel, and having a large enough shape to feel...
Yeah! Apparently the Hammond, invented in 1935, was the very first synthesizer. It's just more dang skills to have to work up to work the switches throughout the tune. shreddin'
All mine are 2 and 3. They both work great. Maybe I slightly prefer 3. Drilling thru the heel cap into end grain is fine as long as you understand proper screw counterbore. The right size drill is...
I have Martin's duo course. It's great. He makes it look effortless.
We refer verbally to the course during our duo practice ( I took notes and discussed with singer ).
I've only played with an organist about twice, and long ago. Just hit me that you guys were tweaking all those switches and stops long before us guys had all the dang stomp boxes!
A functional-harmony perspective might name the note according to how it resolves: #11 resolves up, b5 resolves down.
Of course this won't apply in all situations. Case in point: jazz uses a lot...
So true about first fret. Knowing that just helps us gauge how much taper. My Lehmann is only about 1/32 thicker at 9 than the Borys. But it only tapers about 1/32 down to fret 1 and feels much much...
Piano is going very well. I'll do a piano tune in the next standards thread next week. I tried to quit Hammond but everyone got mad at me and told me not to, so I'm not. So I'm going to keep at it...
I would rather say slightly prefers, we both like them both a lot but that night with the setups we used He, I, and several listeners agreed if it was blind listening we would slightly prefer the...
This perspective (anti-enharmonic) is just based on the idea that a single pitch within the domain of a chord should not take two scale degree numerals but be determined as one or the other based on...
