According to the magazine article, they will be available from September 17. Good that the firmware updates are already there. The Celestions will change the character quite a bit. They're a tad lighter than the Jensens, too. But why blonde, which is associated with acoustic amps? Tweed would have looked cool and jazzy. Perhaps this is just the dawning of a new era, with a palette of models and attires in the pipeline.
Here's an attempt just to located guide-tones, passing tones, chord-tones that might thread through the changes and be the framework for improvisation. The rhythm is pretty monotonous, and I keep to...
Funny how GC clearly doesn't give a crap about these, description says "INCLUDES CASE" hahaha. Go on Reverb and people write a novel about a 1959 Gibson archtop.
There's this guy on YouTube who explains all this manfactuing stuff and all the trends with it. His name is Phillip McKnight. Very interesting to listen to, even if you don't need to buy a guitar any...
I worked with Bill Barker who learned to make guitars from Carl. I used to own one but sold it years ago. I don't just post a bunch of stuff but ask a question I could probably answer. He made great...
This is a great one to run an exercise my old teacher would make me do (that drove me fucking nuts, so you know it's good) Start this tune from random spots that are not the beginning or end of...
Excellent post. While there may be some way to objectively compare overall quality, John A. points out a bunch of factors that could swing the decision. I'd add this. The first thing I do...
Yes, an approach I've found that is effective: (1) Play the appropriate scales for the chord progressions in the tune - that's progressions, as in II-V-I, not a scale per chord approach. (2) Play...
Something I've been practicing quite a bit lately is playing very simple scales up and down -- with added half steps ala Barry, or bebop scales, whatever you want to call them -- and really trying to...
I'm struggling to put all the pieces together and keep tempo. It's like playing 4 different songs back to back right now.
I've put a Rotron Whisper Fan in all my big tube amps since I got my Boogie hunree in '78. They're bulletproof, light, silent (44 dB) and efficient (110 cfm+). I use the 110V model and plug it into...
Hey guitar world, It's hard to find much info on Carl Albanus Johnson - about him as a person, luthier, and pictures of his work - and as someone interested in learning more about him, I would...
Hammertone, any way to make a short video? I’m curious about this guitars tone. Thx!
Absolutely. Playing an arp solo or running the arps is the best way to get the changes in your ear and hands for linear regardless of the tune.
Has anyone been experimenting with simply landing the guide tones and main chord tones for the changes? I get really paralyzed thinking about soloing over a tune like this, so I've been just playing...
