Pat is a very intelligent musician and a great composer.Originally Posted by LobomovPat worked his ass off from a young age and came out of school as an analphabet as all his time went into guitar. According to an interview with himself, he claims that he didn't learn to read and write properly before in his 20s.
Musical talent isn't a gift from God that just is there without any work.
I just did a quick take of the arrangement that I wrote out last week. Forgive me, it's obvious that I didn't warm up etc. It's 2nd take so fairly rough and terrible sound. All I have time for...
Derek Baileys sound world was influenced by Messiaen and Webern, according to him. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I had the chance to play two vintage Levin archtops and they impressed me. Vintage isn’t really my thing so I wasn’t tempted, but they were wonderful musical instruments. I played the Deluxe in this...
On the contrary, I know quite a lot about Derek Bailey, just got the name wrong (now corrected). He used to play straight jazz as a club, studio and dance hall musician, you know, for at least...
No, effective setups vary. But the only possibilities are the weak e string is from it being shoddy acoustically, or too far away from the pickup. That's basically it barring some voodoo.
I never use the tweeter with an archtop, but I do like them with a Gypsy guitar or my Classical. I like my archtops to sound "dark" and the tweeter defeats that for me.
Wow, I downloaded the PDF to get started quickly (will buy the book too). Just looked at Rainy Day. I wrote out an arrangement for a student last week and it's very similar to the version in the...
I'm not from the US, but he certainly seemed to have pissed off a lot of white, college trained Jazz enthusiasts over there! He was (is) certainly allowed his opinions, and I guess someone had...
Is that a different pickup than stock? It has two adjustment screws on the bass side and modern flat black mounting screws.
Excellent. Yeah they're fun. The Clifford Brown ones I'm tinkering with now are super fun. I'll get around to putting them over here soon.
Doesn't really matter where you start ... should eventually do them wherever and in whatever key. But the highest note on the page I think is 12th fret E
Ohhhh I just got it. The DEDC is the root note turn, then it goes down the scale. This will be useful.
If you have an amp with a switchable or adjustable tweeter (Henriksen, etc), do you use it with your archtop? And whether yes or no, why?
I played through your exercises. It’s high on the staff. I don’t think I have those notes on my guitar. So I started at 10th fret e string. Part two is like a tongue twister. Fun.
Archtop with tweeter - yay or nay?
