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.
I’ve played several plek’d guitars. Mileage may vary. There’s a steep learning curve for the machine’s operator. Fretwork and set-up done by a good tech who actually plays guitar him/herself feels...
Hi.
If I understand well you're asking for full hollowbody thinlines. ES330, and ES275 come to mind. While in the ES range. Apart from these I don't find others..
Guitarist I been working with for a while now has a semi hollow thinline L-5. It's definitely a custom made model. Has the master volume on the lower bout like an old Gretsch and one off side fret...
I would have counted everything up until 2:50 as 6/4, based on the phrasing of the melody. After that I get a bit confused as the melody is the same but the drums is playing a different feel which...
What thin line Gibsons were made over the years? I know I've seen pictures of a couple of L5 thin lines. They may have been custom made, I don't know. Also ES 125 and Byrdland. BTW, I didn't mean...
This looks to be super impressive to create great field recordings anywhere that automatically sync to the the 4K video on your iPhone—the world’s smallest condenser mic in a tiny block form that...
Probably not (unless he made one to fit the available space) but a Kent Armstrong single coil floater, floating CC from Pete or even a DeArmond 1100 would probably fit.
Yeah, I have never bought, nor refused to buy, any guitar just because of the headstock. I'm unable to see how the headstock shape affects tone or playability. If that were on the list, it would be...
Thank you for all the info Rickco!
I will give it some more thought and will let you know what i will go with. I have a Tele so I am looking for something different. The D'Angelico I'm looking at...
