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.
As bad as that break looks, I bet a good luthier can repair that so you'd never know it broke, and it would never break there again. It's pretty clean.
Hello. Old thread I know, but the greatest blues music guitarist/singer/songwriter(imho) was never mentioned; the late Elmore James. All of his recordings are free on YouTube and he popularized many...
Yeah, it's not so much that I wouldn't want one, I just know if I were ever to buy a really nice hand built classical, it's probably not going to have a truss rod--traditional builders just don't use...
I have a Cordoba classical and I wish it had a truss rod. The new Cordoba Stage I bought DOES have a truss rod and I'm glad, I have already had to use it.

From a purely guitar perspective - with limited notes available for chords - can anyone explain to me why some chords are described as flat 5 and others are sharp 11?
Can anyone describe a chord...
Is an Archtop Tribute AT101 model not the same (or pretty close to the same) as the ES-125C? Not quite the TDC but an option. There's a used one on Reverb right now, but the price is a little higher...
Hi, my guitar is a yamaha sa2200, and I'm happy. I would like to get a guitar more specific for classic jazz, with a very warm, soft tone. I thought about ibanez pm 200. What do you think? Am I at...
Being the proud owner of an early 70's Martin D28 with no truss rod, that I am not able to play because the action is so high, which breaks my heart, I'm with the "only guitars with truss rods" club.
