That stripe was also the 1st thing I saw (might it be less obvious when held by someone wearing proper pants?). I understand the the customer is the owner of the BG collection. IIRC that's a...

The Mirabella “ Blue siren” Crossfire

Mark will be happy to build you a 15” carved-top EP model with a Florentine cutaway.

The New Campellone fall batch

Thanks. I'll fix that. The analysis (G6) was based on the correct melody, but I had a typo there.

Embraceable You - second chord in progression

I do it really probably a stupid way. I simply get the fake book out and start reading the melody over and over. Then I add the chord melody and keep going over the tune as many times as I can. Then...

BEST way to memorize standard melodies

This one will be the Glassllone Spezial. Gustav Glassl, a student of Franz Hirsch, was the ghost builder for top-tier carved archtop guitars from West German shops, like Hopf, Klira, and others. This...

The New Campellone fall batch

Roger just informed me about a new B165 that is available. This is larger than the B120 , measuring 16.5 across lower bout. I took some measurements on my B165 and scale is 25” and sides are 2.875....

PSA - New Borys B165 available

I spent some time comparing my 6.5Gp with the new 8GP today. I put them on the kitchen floor so as not to have the sound absorbed by a carpet, but rather bouncing around a small live room. I kept...

Can you show me your 1x8" guitar amp?

Melody is E F# G.

Embraceable You - second chord in progression

I didn't read every post. One thing I didn't see mentioned was the melody. It's (edited) E F# G, twice at the beginning. Thinking as a guitarist but not much of a theorist: You can start...

Embraceable You - second chord in progression

LOL! But exactly, for that inside Vb9 sub both chrom and sec dom dim would be VII7. For the chom its V of iii but you're resolving to ii. OK I think I've said enough..... there's some gold in my...

Embraceable You - second chord in progression

Yes but did Barry go to a better or worse music school than us?

Embraceable You - second chord in progression

Hobby brands dear to our hearts are often smaller than their reputation would suggest. I'm not strong with numbers, but recall that Eminence changed hands for a surprisingly small heap of clams.

One head, two cabs

I'm interested in this one, as a sort of ES-125/ES-150 copy... not a fan of the chunky Godin neck, the Loar 309 was just cheap. This looks very interesting, even if it might need a Biltoft CC. ...

The New Ibanez Pat Metheny PM3C Model

Barry said "Flat three diminished goes to the Two and to the Three". Good enough for me.

Embraceable You - second chord in progression

I too have to admit the blue with what seems a white stripe does not hit me for looks. I am sure though it is a super sounding guitar Cris makes great guitars. I am pretty much a traditionalist with...
