I liked this, so checked out your YouTube and found some more good stuff. Your solo guitar clips are great and should be much longer! Try posting in the showcase subforum? This one has never received...

Our Own Compositions. Post them here!

Black popular music in the 60s and 70s was incredible. Not that it wasn't prior to that. But they made so many great records within the pop, soul, funk, and rock genres. Motown and Philadelphia...

Wynton vs Herbie 1985

Thanks for your warm regards about this post. Truth is my hands are giving me lots of problems lately and I’ve got to get things checked out by a hand specialist. Might be a form of arthritis, not...

I bought a Universal Audio interface and soon realised after being sent the 100th “amazing deals on plug in x” or “half price bundles on your favourite amps”, that I had been turned into an investors...

The Audo Plug in Scam

I agree about the user interface and instead went down into the OS kernel (embedded Linux, RTOS, VxWorks, etc.) and device drivers. To me, that stuff was much more interesting. This involved...

The Audo Plug in Scam

Yes, I've seen the factory second marking before on archtops and solidbodies alike. It was probably due to some minor cosmetic flaw that prevented the guitar from being sold as new. After all these...

Benedetto Bravo Deluxe or Gibson WesMo Crimson

If the guitar has a good balance acoustically, this could be the ticket, and it's not an uncommon problem on arch tops. It took me three pickups to get the right balance on my most recent...

Cure for a weak high E string?

There's a good compilation record of Gabor's that my father had in his collection that features his work with Chico Hamilton, Gary McFarland, and his own band that he had with an acoustic guitarist,...

Why not just buy an H-530?

Actually thinking about it I’m sort of going more with Tal’s way of looking at it. Think ‘Bernie’s Tune’. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Tritone chord root movement

I think considering a different pickup may be in order. As has been discussed, some pickups allow for individual balancing of the strings. You may not want to rely on a specific string or pick to get...

Cure for a weak high E string?

Thanks Andrew, are you familiar with the “second” making and its reference to market- there’s little said, though the value is somewhat diminished but not sure how Gibson at that time (80s’)...

How Many Guitar Amps Do You Own?

Another beautiful moment of time you've created, Mark. Hoagy is so present here and framed in such a personal treatment of sound and video. That guitar is really sounding more and more natural in...

I thought about this a bit after my first response and I find it baffling why anyone would want to limit themselves to a single EQ plugin. There are so many different feature sets and available...
