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

Please check in with Fox Fletcher in Albuquerque. Handmade Electric Solid Body Guitars - Mallory Guitars I highly recommend him. Fox is an accomplished luthier and repair tech. He has a Master...
Actually, Alan Carruth has, at least as properly as he could. That's why I asked a luthier. But as I said somewhere above, the strings don't come into contact with the fretboard wood. So any...
I have a Yamaha G100 III 2x12, too big for my needs but otherwise a great amp (excellent EQ as stated). I bought it on eBay over 20 years ago for a very low price, its size scared off most buyers. Of...
I would also replace base with a full footprint on the top. This spreads the load much better and reduces chance of top sagging or misalignment in future. Performance and functionality are more...
There are 3 ways to learn how play lines: transcribe, read, and work out the mechanics of the raw materials. 1. Transcribe. Like the others said, it's essential to transcribe some things to be...
I hate to recommend Cordoba but they do have 1 or 2 guitars of that size. Whether they fit in your budget is a different question. The closest you can probably get is a 7/8th size classical...
I picked up a piece I worked on a few years ago when it was barely playable for me: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RcwebvHKZ2U It's from Mike's video course @MusicGurus called "Uptown Blues -...
This is a really timely post, thank OP! I have a '52 reissue Tele from '99 that I discovered sounded and felt fantastic for jazz. Yes, I know. Famous players have been making great jazz music...
There is a potential way to fix the sagging. Not complicated and possibly easy given you can get under the top to work with the pickup cavities open. It involves matching a curved brace under the top...
One of the more SFW stories from Miles’s autobiography “Bird never talked about music, except one time I heard him arguing with a classical musician friend of mine. He told the cat that you...
Well I'll be. Yeah -- never heard that one. Or if I heard it before, I wasn't listening :nightmare:
Apparently, just for some trivia, the C on the score doesn't stand for 'Common' time. It comes from medieval church music where 3/4 was considered the most religiously perfect time signature (tempus...
Decided to mess around with this one...tried to to bring back the sixth into my solo a bit.
If I had to choose one, then single coil. What I think would be cool: a single coil pickup right next to a humbucker, both in the "neck" position. I haven't found a HB pickup that works well when...
The cost of labor here in California is quite high. I expect luthier work to cost $100 an hour or more. And finding a luthier with the skill set to work on archtops is not easy. A vintage guitar...
