Hey JazzDad: Mid 70's I played many gigs at Inn of The Seventh Mountain. Is that even a place anymore? I always liked Bend. Smith Rock for one thing.
I have a grand total of 2 carved archtops. I really don't treat them as perhaps I should. In fact I don't do anything for them. I hang them on the wall. Horrors of horrors it's an outside wall of a...
In my experience the downside to the Varitone (esp. combined with the stereo wiring) is weight. It made my ES-345 feel a lot heavier than a comparable 335, which is the main reason I no longer have...
No, I was mistaken. It's triplets at 200bpm. I can't even count at that tempo.:doh:
My understanding is that duties are being levied if the value of the shipment exceeds 800 USD. USA is a heaven to send things to, compared to e.g. Canada.
I just finished practicing my triplet exercises, and I realized I'm only doing three notes per beat, NOT six notes per beat. So I'm only doing TEN notes per second. Putting the metronome on 200bpm is...
Have any of you tried the Eastman AR405E? There is one for sale at €800 and I a bit tempted to just pick it up as an impulse buy instead of that ES125 that I always considered but never really...
Conclusion of week 12. The wall is a big one here: forming a vocabulary of small groupings while forming a musical idea that employs those groupings. This was something that I was so jealous of when...
@Jeff I think simple rules of thumb are underappreciated. If you learn you can put, for example F triad on that Bbm chord, you can spend time exploring and internalising that sound (and listening...
Peter C, You use lick of the week/F Gb F Eb,E Gb F Eb/. Nice take.I can hear a little Paco-energy. Kris
About practical theory.The best for me is "On improvisation"by John Scofield. In a one-hour video, you have practically everything...Among others f.ex.modes of jazz melodic minor scale-very...
The 50-year old house my parents left me has appreciated by 110 times. I'd say $1300 for a 59 Les Paul in 1970 sounds about right. $1000 of Microsoft stock in 1986 has a value of $2.351m today....
C'mon. This is good stuff. And not one response?!? McJazzer, your duet sounds like what Sebastien Giniaux was also after: Sebastien Giniaux / Cherif Soumano - Alkoholowa Nuda / Dakan - YouTube...
I'm not even close to Paul Gilbert's speed. PG is a shredder. I couldn't shred if my life depended on it. I put on an example or two of my playing on here before. Haven't you heard it? I'm just a...
Eastman AR405E ... Any thoughts?
