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?
That's an awesome story. It just goes to show how talented and how committed to the craft the old guard at Heritage was. I just so happen to have recently purchased another Heritage that was made for...
I also had one of the early Katana 50s and used it in a short lived surf band as well as with my oldies trio and really enjoyed it. I think I only sold it after I found my Evans RE200 which is...
Sorry, mates, this, the Performaxe, is godawful. Aluminium and spruce-topped guitars don't mix. Anyday now, you're going to put a nice delicious gouge or divot or ten on your guitar, no matter how...
I bought an inexpensive nylon string electric (Cordoba Stage) mostly for Bossa Nova sorts of things. It does sound quite good. Having a hard time getting used to the nylon string action (3mm at...
Thanks,
He's chord scaling so his chord symbols are really chord/scale symbols (extra stuff enough to identify the scale), but he writes he's for removing thoughts from the written page and...
Pleasantly surprised at the Katana 50 for a clean...
