Unless you're playing a really bad instrument, it's the musician . . . not the guitar that makes the sound on an electric guitar. Guitarists are the worst instrument snobs I've ever met in music. There are more inept "musicians" playing "classic" instruments than the converse. The ES125 is a great working guitar and D's performance is a testament to my above remarks. Nice sound, D!

Wow, 2 DB videos in one week!

I dug up that one.
Man that performance was Blue-Eyes worthy, I don't know what the inspiration was but I was transported back in time at the Sands somehow. And what an acoustic sound that ES-125 has. This is one of my favorite standards and Live at the Sands one of my favorite albums.
The illustrious ES-125 Dutch society inspired me last summer to reach out to Maurice Dupont and I ordered his Saint Louis model (ES-125 replica) which should be here soon. I have high expectations, among others of a good acoustic sound (I asked Maurice specifically about this), fingers crossed.

Really nice DB.
Proof positive that tone is in the hands. An it doesnt hurt to have the word Gibson on the headstock.
I wish growing up I would have listened to more players who played in this style. The lines would have been ingrained in my head and playing this way would have come naturally to me. But that is not the case, so the next best thing is to listen to guys like you play. I admire the groove you are in when you play. A strong, responsive guitar helps you sound, Thunkadelic!
Keep it up DB. Life would not be as exciting if we didnt have contributions like yours on JGF!

Hi, DB,
I liked your more relaxed, Bluesy approach to "Angel Eyes." Music is not just notes but the silence between the sound.

Maurice Dupont ... I googled him and found your model! Looks great. Looking forward to seeing and hearing it!

I have enough people pissed at me all the time, I dont need another! Plus, I know if I really really really wanted to, I could do it and do it convincingly on my own. But, I always prefer to learn another piece that will allow me to sit and entertain without the need for tracks or a band..
In other words..
That ship has sailed!
Old dog, new tricks?? Naa... I'll just watch (and envy) you guys..
Keep it up DB. Sounds really great.
