Sending all my best to Big Mike. He taught me a lot about Japanese guitars when I started out over 15 years ago. He was always very generous. Let’s hope the nurses have their hands full!
Or ... someone ask their favourite Mozai to compose a jazz version of this (with new music video, preferably)? :D https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rgc_LRjlbTU
The player is usually the main source of hum and the purpose of grounding the strings is to ground the player. Most guitars seem to be already wired with shielded wire. Unfortunately the jack...
Aero Instruments makes a product which was reviewed in GP. Basically one end of a wire attaches to ground and the other to something that looks like a penny that you place against your skin. It...
How do you remember where you put it, though? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
There’s also things like Miles ‘the serpents tooth’ which is not unlike progressions in tunes like Mean To Me, Bewitched, Ain’t Misbehaving (that we don’t think of as RC tunes, but kind of are). I...

New poll idea: How many people don't like participating in polls?
Since the hum cuts when you touch the strings, that means the bridge is grounded. Your only option for improving things is to use shielded (2 conductor) coaxial wire. This is the same principle as...
Plectrum tuning wouldn't be too weird. CGBD. All you have to do is lower the A and the E strings a full tone down on a standard guitar and ignore the top 2 strings and that would be a plectrum tuning.
So do a new poll that's delineated to your liking.
I'm no compositional expert, but I'll answer the questions regardless. I agree with both Jim and rpjazzguitar in spirit and method. 1: I rarely have very intellectual ideas to start with. Usually...
Those look amazing, and I'm sure they play and sound excellent as well! I have one that unfortunately I must sell. Please PM if interested. (Hope this isn't inappropriate.) Just a moment...
