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?
Excellent stuff, I think those 'Turns' sound great.
Inspired by your examples, I've been practicing with some slightly modified simple 'Turns' over Major iiVI's, maybe they sound a bit like...
I have a Wu archtop and I'm very happy with it.
I toured with this guitar for years, never had a problem.
I wouldn't worry so much asking custom features: I asked for a copy of my 1930 L5 (which I...
Oh, hope it stays up, I'm gonna dig into this when I get some time.
I've been back on a JR kick again lately, just reminded me again of what a monster player he was, not that I really needed...
Hi forum,
Today is the 35th anniversary of the day my mind was blown and my life changed completely!
I grew up in Louisville, Kentucky. I knew who Jimmy Raney was in 1989, because I had met...
I've always liked some AG, but structure ended up being the most essential approach to music for me. I usually listen to structured music but always enjoy a change of pace of some good AG. I don't...
In that clip I heard him playing a jazz tune so he would be a jazz musician. However the main tunes and style did sound rock / jam band. I hadn't heard of him before and liked it.
@Ol' Fret, thanks for a very informative post, hopefully this will be useful to others on a similar quest. I would love a Lang but the prices have gone up prohibitively. Thankfully there are many...
I was inspired by Mr B's month of rhythm guitar then summer of rhythm guitar. I've been on a kick to improve my technical skills so I thought why not record every day? People say if you want to...
If you ask me, it's not up to Gabor Szabo, it's up to the jazz freaks. If they want to include him in their club then so be it. He played what he wanted, a bit like Julian Lage.
