Here's mine. As usual, I didn't know this one before. I wasn't going to post, but I listened to it today and I didn't hate it as much as I did last nite. And hopefully I'll continue with it during the month and improve.
Oh, that was better, sounds more thought-out. Familiarity with the tune helps, of course. No one's that good the first time. The blues sounds were good, suits the tune, I think.
Out of curiosity, what were the Garrison Fewell tips you were using, roughly? Not that I want to copy them or anything but for interest's sake.
It's one of the study threads in the Improvisation forum. It's to do with triads w/extensions to create lines. It's something I've been interested in for awhile now, but never found anything I seemed to "get". His book "A Melodic Approach" looked good and has really made sense to me so far.
Pos 1 or 2 for me
As for straplocks, I had a set of Schaller in the past (not the new ones) and didn't feel secure with them. I almost dropped a guitar because it was not completely locked

The position 5 (and to some extend 4) makes the guitar hang more snug when standing. Positions 1 and 2 make the guitar rotate slightly away from the body especially when it comes to deeper body...
So your freind says he prefers the Korean T50 to his US made SF3? That says something !
Thanks for your thoughtful comments, very interesting.
How would you describe the sound of the Dyansonics ?...
Of course, before the interweb and forums we had Usenet and BBSs (and mailing lists) ... with far fewer people on them because connectivity wasn't as normal as it's now. No neck-specific newsgroup...
I can never understand 4 and 5. It’s right in the way of the hand when you are on the upper frets.
I’d go with 2 because you’re not drilling into the body cavity. Also if you do do, the mod is...
I've had the LJ for several years now.
Early on, I was enamored of the sound. I still like it, but I only use it for very quiet situations now.
The sound for lead lines works fine for me,...
I just don't care, maybe because I used to own a music store and played, probably, hundreds of guitars in a month's time. Since I can rarely play instruments before I buy them, I'm, fortunately, able...
FYI the latest gen of the Blu no longer has a switchable send level in the loop. But I agree with you, most of the time I prefer my pedals in the loop rather than in front of the amp.
I sourced the woods for this one when John was going to build my guitar, after many calls all over the country I found 3 great sets of maple and 3 great sets of Adirondak spruce. I had a hard time...
