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.
New-ish because I have now had the guitar for a few months.
This is #55 of the Schorr guitars (and my #1 good 7-string guitar, but another interesting instrument is coming soon).

I ended up finding a PM120. I really love the quality (and sound) of the high end japanese archtops and really missed having a pm120. It sort of bridges the gap between something like a sadowsky...
I wonder if those who own a vintage Type 1 (1923-1924) or Type 2 (1925-1930) 16” L5s could provide me with some measurements. I see different #s online depending on where I look.

Hi!
Sometimes it's possible to fill gaps in the melody with another melody.
Cheers, Mikko

Thanks for the reply.
The one Guild I'm interested in is the Starfire III Special with the Dynasonics pickups. Best of both worlds to me since I much prefer the cutaway and it has a Bigsby, which I...
Hey guys thank you very much for all your replies.
I am leaning towards position 2. I also bought the Dunlop straplock and will ask the tech to install it.
Will do NGD!

I love Ben Webster. The Holiday/Webster sessions with Barney Kessel on guitar is a legendary album. So much inspiration in there and Barney's performance is stellar, very melodic guitar playing.

Actually, the entire 4 bars could be played in the first position if you use open strings but it may sound country especially if you're playing a Tele. :pig:
