I have been practicing my slur (ligado) technique on classical guitar… using the Aaron Shearer book.
As I was doing exercises I thought, “some of these could make good sequences”. Then I started to try and apply them in a more jazz way. Not working so well.
I did a lot of problem solving and came up with some ideas. However I feel like the wisdom here far transcends my limited-ness.
The motivation for the book was to systematically address different slur fingering combinations. Each figure though is built with slurred notes within reach of each other. Pedal notes always add logic to a sequence. The bulk of these have a flow similar to enclosures. To me they make the most sense resolving to a chord indicated by an additional target note or notes. They also can form cool sequences by moving the patterns in various ascending or descending intervals. Harmonically speaking the starting and ending points define function. Now that you have assimilated these moves, not a bad thing to consider if they have any application outside of guitar gym class.
Alright mofos, here's my final submission! I worked this tune in college back in the 00s and I guess it came back to me. I did every instrument on my digital piano and spliced them together. Took it...
I love this tune.
That's Cornell Dupree on rhythm guitar with King Curtis. (First, the original studio recording and second, a live version from a TV performance---much better sound. And That Band!...
It's possible that you could make that work, but if it's the same volume as a regular Princeton, I would have trouble with any Hammond B3 player I have ever played with- they are uniformly very loud...
I feel that there is a fair bit of an overgeneralization in this list, though I agree that the bridge is mostly a maintenance item.
Speaking as a player, I definitely think that the composition of...
not quite the same thing but I was working in club that was a converted house. the room was very small w/ a stage in the back and being a converted house the ceiling was low. I had my old L-5 on...
I did not have the pickups at the same time, so my comparison is by memory. I felt that the new one (I only compared the 1100) had less high end. I also felt that it was susceptible to more single...
