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 own two guitars. A Mule steel tricone and 1959 Rodebald Hoyer “Samba” acoustic archtop. These are the two best playing and sounding guitars I have ever owned. My keepers.
I've owned a few over 60 years of playing! 21 amplifiers and 15 guitars- surprisingly small list of guitars, I tended to find the ones I wanted to play, and then keep them until I wasn't using them...
I use my acoustic Mule steel tricone for everything I play, including jazz. A nice sounding acoustic tricone is hard to beat the sound of to my ears. If I wasn’t to add a little something different,...
to me GC is a corporate idea that did not include low pay employees who thought working there would be cool,
and found out it was not.
My most recent trip to GC was to obtain an Ibanez super...
Well I searched and it said pleks don't round the fret ends so I would say try to find a good luthier. But you said there are only 2 in your area, the suck guy and an ok guy, so I understand your...
Nice one AllenAllen. Duo gigs next for you :highly_amused::smile-new:
We'll get a full set if I do improv but am actually looking forward to the solo set more. I love the freedom.
I had a very rare 1 off sweet 16 pleked by J Wolfe. It came out great and after it shipped from fla to ca all I did was adjust the action hight and it plays perfectly. At about the same time I had a...
A rough estimate on the guitars results in about 100, I still have 10 of them. I am not so sure about the amps. I guess about 20-30 and still have 2. Not counting the mandoline, banjo, bass, and ukes
I've owned over 100 guitars easily since the late 70's, no idea how many. Far fewer amps though, maybe a 15? Right now I have 17 guitars, 2 bases, and 5 amps.
Yes, and I've owned one. Violins, that is, not its maker. Where do you think I got my ideas about current makers not being incapable to match the products of the old makers?
He doesn't have a CNC,...
I need to make a video on basic chord melody.
What the others said. You don't need a book. All you do is take the melody on top and insert the interval (or chord inversion) below that fits...
I wouldn't assume am unlevel board is reason the refret job turned out badly, and I definitely wouldn't assume a Plek machine is necessary to check a fingerboard for levelness and fix it. And even...
