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.
Thanks for all the thoughts. On the recording, I don’t think it sounded bad, just not what I was expecting, as PaulN pointed out.
What I gather from your comments and thinking about it some more...
The Fishman is my go-to gigging amp because it is light, loud, has decent reverb and chorus, has a sweepable midrange filter to tame feedback/wolf tones, and rather flat frequency profile. Oh, and it...
I have built my lo-power Tweed Twin from a kit with upgraded Heyboer transformers. I run it with the 12AY preamp tubes as per Leo's original design and add a touch of reverb through either a Strymon...
That's the problem right there. Never mind Real book charts, how many versions have you listened to? And how many have the additional line? If hardly any, that's your answer. Because nobody uses it.
thanks. That contrast is one of my favorite things. When discussing stain and finish with Tom R, there was an option to go with something reddish that would minimize the different wood tones or the...
More like a debate. While with an acoustic instrument you might still get some sort of consensus how it sounds best, how could you possibly hope for that with an electric instrument that doesn't...
JM touching perfection..and great amp/effects..
The sheet music for this tune is a great study in slash chords and harmonic movement.
To me this is magical/mystical music. Its in the...
The technical term for what's going on with "genre" is called lexical ambiguity or polysemy--multiple senses for a single word. Singer-songwriter (or singer-songwriter-guitarist, SSG) is a "genre" in...
If your looking at the D'Ang B you might want to consider the Guild T50. I just got a Dynasonic model, quite happy. allusedguitars on ebay (yeah i know...) still has a couple open box for $750. Not...

great
unfortunately the pad sounds they offer aren’t hitting the spot for me
in fact I prefer...
You can't determine how it sounds out in the audience from how it sounds to you playing on stage. If you adjust so it it sounds perfect to you on stage, the audience is likely being punished with...
