A few bad notes or a missed chord

So what kind of blues is this (or not?)

In simple terms, your playing doesn't swing, it's like you're playing classical music, a Bach chorale or something. Your technique is adequate, your tone is too bright and chimey, as Bobby said, I'm...

Not really sounding very 'jazzy'. Is it in the playing technique?

You sound like a really good player, you have a lot of stuff already worked out. I can see why you're frustrated, as you've put in the work but it's not sounding like you want it to. Here's my 2...

Not really sounding very 'jazzy'. Is it in the playing technique?

"However also try to record Jeff's version as that is what this study group is about." I don't plan to change it much, on paper anyway, just add some alternate voicings and/or chord fingerings. I...

Jazz Ballads by Jeff Arnold

Fully understandable for horns to tune to 442. I play only bigband and IMHO it makes no sense when a conductor insists that my guitar and the bass are to be tuned to 442 whilst the E piano is 440,...

Why is the internet out of tune, and what can you do?

Welcome to the forum. No, that's definitely not only due to your technique. I can think of 3 problems. It sounds like there could be some tone suck going on in your signal chain, you've dialed...

Not really sounding very 'jazzy'. Is it in the playing technique?

Sorry to hear the details Clem. Clearly worse than it sounded at first. Something drizzled on the neck that can't be wiped off.. what the heck is up with that? Let us know when you figure out what...

"Just because a Negro plays Jazz, it doesn't necessarily make him a man"... Surely Tristano could not have meant this in a racist way. Without knowing the context, we can twist this to mean anything....

Don Cherry on Lennie Tristano

Glad you kept that one, Jack, I remember you thinking about selling it a while back (recognize the cool fingerboard). I love my GB10, just wish it was the size of a 175. ( I'm 6'4".) Might have...

Shows what looks to be an authentic Sadowsky serial number on the back of the headstock (I have one).... thus, I think the photo is of a legit Jim Hall, which means the real guitar they are offering...

Me too.....4 gigs in a row starting tomorrow thru Sunday. I recorded something yesterday, just the piece as written but didn't want to share it as it sounded crap. I'll get to it soon tho.

Very nice feather in the cap of the Mountain Lion of Islip ( I think that's how the late Stan Jay once described him)

Monteleone guitar exhibit and Art of the Guitar festival ( 2 separate events)

This is true. I added Bigsby to my tele, it worked ok, only with 11's. When I needed to go down to 10's I discovered the issues with tension and break angles. The guitar didn't feel right. I took...

Telecaster - Single Coil or Humbucker?

The headstock shape and logo are the two things that are easiest for an independent luthier to protect as intellectual property. So if it doesn't show those things, there's probably a reason.
