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?
There are two because there are two pickups, thus two inputs. These switches are made as simply as possible. It's made to switch between two outputs if desired, but for this application there is...
The jazz content is nice, but Matt just isn't sociopathic enough for Tom. Too cloying in his sucking up and just not dangerous enough. Jude is way too pretty for Dickie. In fact, the whole cast is...

Am I supposed to solder the output wire to both lugs on the Switchcraft 3-way switch? I don't get why there even are two.
I had seen the movie version, "The Talented Mr. Ripley", and I was expecting something completely different In the movie, they had Jude Law playing the Dickie character as a wanna be jazz sax...
First off, it's not beginner-to-jazz material. Most chord melodies I hear are easier than the one you posted.
If you're going to do it, it's going to be laborious, practicing a few beats,...
Great job mounting the pickup! I’m in the minority here, but the only thing I’d change is the length of it. The Guild Benedetto’s had solid white binding pick guard’s so yours adds additional flair...
Hi StarJasmine,
I can explain my setup to you, but I basically sound the same regardless of what I am using. (within reason)
It is a 1980 Gibson ES175T (Thinline) with .12's and an unwound G....
The answer to this question is simple: You first have to possess Audiophile ears. Tubeophiles in the audio industry believe that tube amps clearly sound better after a 30 minute or so warmup. But...
