In the case of functions we enter another level of abstraction. What precisely does it mean that Gb6 (or for that matter Gbmaj7#11) retains the function of Gb7? I suppose one could argue that the...

Do these chords exists? Any different name for them?

I'm a happy owner of a Comins GCS-1 ES, bought it used but probably untouched. It probably had the original set of strings, that I measured at 0.010/0.046". This sounded good as it was, and it took...

Comins GCS-1 ES - string experiences and preference?

Pre Sonic-Circuit and great condition for age. Bought as a back up for an identical amp, but used seldomly over the years and it’s workhorse twin is still going Strong! Quintessential jazz amp...

Yes it would, which is why I suggested it in a prior post: As for whether the player is biased by knowing which one is in his or her hands, it's certainly a theoretical confounder. I don't...

Rosewood vs Maple fretboard head to head - There's a difference

I don’t know if I’m being a bit dim but I’m not sure if I understand how the example you gave disassociates root from bass. Which is what I meant. In any case what I feel have learned from figured...

Please advice about buying vintage Gibson L-5 (‘39 or ‘46)

Both of those years are pretty much the same specs, so the better guitar would be my choice, though for an additional 5K, it would have to be WAY better. Bear in mind that these are old guitars...

They are going to be the same basic construction. There may be some variation in wood species, but there can be more variation between two guitars with the exact same woods compared to two with some...

Please advice about buying vintage Gibson L-5 (‘39 or ‘46)

The og pickups on my MIK Zephyr and Emperor were really bad and some folks here advocated for replacing the pots and jack. I wasn't able to use the new CTS pots for the Zephyr because the holes...

Two conductor wire or this pre-tinnes gavitt for archtop/hollowbody?

I understand that, I was merely trying to find out if there are any differences between the two years construction-wise. If there are none, I understand that I have to choose the best guitar out of...

Please advice about buying vintage Gibson L-5 (‘39 or ‘46)

I only wish I had the OP's problem! I have zero experience with vintage archtops where Omph has a ton. What I read from people like him and Deacon is that there's variation in guitars from Gibson out...

Please advice about buying vintage Gibson L-5 (‘39 or ‘46)

The splitter is a great idea. Not sure why we didn't do that back when. Maybe because re-amping wasn't a thing? I got into arguments with engineers and producers, who are by nature control freaks. ...

Use of amp reverb when recording?

Not always. Sometimes they are the truth. If I'm going from D9 to Ab7b5 to Gmaj9, then the second chord is just the b5 sub of the D. Ted Greene encouraged me to also think of that as the bII...

Do these chords exists? Any different name for them?

Would there be a difference by the way in the type of spruce used for the top? For the ‘39 adirondack and for the ‘46 sitka? Or would there be no difference at all as far as that is concerned?
