Quite right. He also played a lot of guitars, including that Ibanez. From a Gibson reputedly given to him by Benny Goodman, a Guild Artist Award which he played in JJ's pub in Dublin, an archtop...
I own and play a ‘49 ES-150. It’s a great guitar with what I consider to be a perfect neck. The tuner buttons needed replaced, but otherwise it’s been a stable and superb playing and sounding jazz...
Barney Kessel's solo record is lovely. Jonathan Kreisberg ONE showcases a more modern harmonic approach. Ralph Towner's catalog has many solo offerings, all of which are really imaginative and...
