Getting Transcriptions Wrong

1979 L5 CES - Sweden ~$7k

A duet piece for guitar and cello

Anyone else use Genius Jamtracks?

I'm doing a bit more transcribing these days. On the plus side, even after just a few months I can sense my ear improving, I'm finding things more quickly, and hearing things without having to slow...

Getting Transcriptions Wrong

Lots of great insight on this thread. I retired last May. I messaged Roli, with genuine intent to purchase his TF-sold JD's in a short-lived financial panic-wrong move! First world, entitled problem,...

I did call the shop (which seems fairly respected), and they did say the top does not seem sunken. They said the action was a touch high and after a bridge adjustment the distance from the top of the...

Thanks for the kind words. I think the guitar sounds clear but not thin or brittle. Some folks like to tinker with changing pickups as an interest/pastime/hobby and that's cool but not a...

I can’t tell from just the one picture. It could be a sunken top, or a bad neck angle, or it could just be that the action is cranked way high. Are other pictures? Action measurements?

really pretty finish on that L5 - don't think I've ever seen one done in that color before.

What beats an L5?

Agreed, but I'd say there are 2 authors then. The doctor, and then a pharmacist who scribbled his or her interpretation above the hieroglyphs :cool:

What are these chords

Alpop, beutiful tone and nice playing, too. Sure should silence these who think the pickup is too bright.

I had to go and listen to both. I hear what you're talking aboput. Something must have been in the air. One sounds like "heavenly clouds of regret" and the other one sounds like "atmospheric...

I would say it had a longer afterlife in the Bossa repertoire… Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Analyzing

I've had my PM3C for about a month now. I've kept it completely stock, strings and all and have no complaints about anything. I am a home/hobbyist type player. If you want to hear another...

Yes, the lick works for both, due to the chord tones on the down beats.

The string figure in that part of the song was supposedly composed by Carol Kaye in the studio but it's almost identical to the one that runs through Nights in White Satin from the previous year. An...
