I don’t care for either because they’re with Columbia Records. Don’t you know it was Columbia that killed STAX records? True story. In 1970 the head of Columbia was the great Clive Davis. Clive...
Yeah, I wasn't suggesting we'd want to learn Galbraith's arrangement(s) verbatim but as you said, there are some good ideas we can use. In fact, I saw a few phrases in Arnold's arrangement that...
VERY different amps. The Princeton Tonemaster has very much a classic Fender sound with the prominent mid range scoop and Fender style trem and reverb. The Little Jazz is warmer and fuller and much...
Hi, This is my father's guitar, he gave it to me. Thank you very much Papa! :triumphant: There are some German archtop specialists on the forum that already know it. My previous post...
I will say this about the Norlin era: The solid bodies and the semi-hollows are what gave the era its reputation. For the high end archtops, it's "guilt by association". The flip side to this is that...
If I were in your shoes, I'd be looking seriously at the Benedetto 16-B in the for sale section here. But, hey, I'm a Benedetto guy. Check out Jocelyn Gould and the tone she is getting from her...

Hey all I’m going to be living in Santa Barbara for a couple of months this summer. I’m eager to meet local musicians as soon as I can so hopefully I get invited to jams and/or set up some gigs....
Well, let your ears decide. Play Bb7 to Emin7. Do you actually hear a satisfying resolution? Now play Bb7 to A7 a couple of times, then Bb7 Emin7 A7. Do you hear a delayed resolution? In my case, I...
Wow, I never thought of that in those terms, much more in these: It's great to have both views. I'll try to find a recording. You don't want to hear my sorry attempts at it.
