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?
Stablemates is not on Moanin’, perhaps you were thinking of Along Came Betty which is on the album.

Thanks man, I'm not consciously using rest strokes if that's what I'm doing haha.
I should dig back into this one and analyze it, I'm can't remember what polytonal subs he's using here. In general...
You're getting awfully hung up on the specific word "lick" but my guess is that Jack used that word primarily to make a little fun at Christian's video.
They are, after all, somewhat in dialogue.

Chatgpt thinks there would be a difference in sound. It's the future. It doesn't matter if it's right.
But, who can actually figure out which one sounds best? I couldn't find a record of anybody...
Jack's scale pattern is a heck of a lot longer than 15 notes , the Eric Dolphy phrase I posted has 13 notes (and it didn't end there).
I'm not trying to win an argument here, I think it's an...
