Thanks for your examples and comments! You've given me some work to do, and some new ways to think about this. I'm infatuated with those middle three strings! It has always seemed so cool to me,...
I agree chord/scale relationships are easy. Especially once you stop looking at the fretboard in compartmentalized way like most guitarist do. I mean having separate references for arpeggios, scales...
I gathered that he orients them by the two bottom strings, you can see that he has Root/3rd/5th/7th mapped out on them. Joe Pass used that approach. Of course you'll also need to know your chord...
You know, there's someone here who is expressly focused on opening the real book and playing chord melody from the page. I can't remember who, but I bet they have a good grasp on what tunes work for...
I already knew names of the notes when I came up with this thing. Yes, I wanted to be better at visualizing the neck, so I came up with this and other methods to help me to do that. I already...

I had a Kingpin also. 2 in fact. Love those guitars--excellent ergonomics, and very well made. That would certainly be a good choice for a first jazzbox, in fact I'd recommend it over the Epi JP. ...
Maybe my hearing loss is really bad, or maybe the tinnitus covers it up, but I can't really hear much piezo quack at all. Very nice sound to my ears. The Fishman Artist btw has an adjustable...
Christian, you spoke of cumbersome fingerings, and later played a clip of Adam Rogers playing. Is he not using the "cumbersome fingerings" you advised against? P.S. - I'm not asking the...
I agree. That's why the Bill Evans/Jim Hall pairing is so effective. Or Jim Hall/Red Mitchell. It's a real conversation going on. The last album by Pharoah Sanders with Floating Points (Sam...
Well, all of this of course is subjective. The strings that came on my ES-175 turn out to be John Pearse Jazz 11s. I really like them and will continue to use them, although I may experiment with my...
