Very nice summation, Christian, you really are good at that sort of thing. :smile-new:

What do you call power chords with chord symbols?

Since you played with and learned some stuff from Danny Gatton (who I just discovered in the last few months), do you have any observations on that crazy alt. picking chromatic scale study (5 NPS) he...

You guys are goin to town with the pedantry.

All of Me - A7 on measure #28 (9th?)

OK, so to be super specific. a pitch class is defined as the set of all pitches a whole number of octaves apart. Alternatively put, it is an octave invariant definition of a given pitch (C, E,...

"BTW, there's a clear b13 there too, in case you missed it." Played over the IIm7b5 chord (b9th), not the V7 chord. This is, the b9th of the IIm7 chord = b13th of the V7 chord. Like I said, b9th...

Ibanez makes wood bridges for similar sized bodies (GB models) (quite costly). I tried Göldo HW155 which did not fit my guitar very well (less costly). It is now taking space in my parts box. I...

Ibanez AG95 / Fender Mustang GTX Metallic Sound

Potayto potahto? BTW, there's a clear b13 there too, in case you missed it. Sounds legit! In seriousness that's a profound point about musical analysis. No of course not, and anyone...
