In the measure with the Bb-7 chord, 4th note, you're playing a D natural and it needs to be a Db. You got me thinking about playing it an octave higher than what I've been doing.
From a purely guitar perspective - with limited notes available for chords - can anyone explain to me why some chords are described as flat 5 and others are sharp 11? Can anyone describe a chord...
Is an Archtop Tribute AT101 model not the same (or pretty close to the same) as the ES-125C? Not quite the TDC but an option. There's a used one on Reverb right now, but the price is a little higher...
Hi, my guitar is a yamaha sa2200, and I'm happy. I would like to get a guitar more specific for classic jazz, with a very warm, soft tone. I thought about ibanez pm 200. What do you think? Am I at...
Joe Pass used the pointy end, but he got small picks and then BROKE them, and used the pointy half of the broken pick.
Being the proud owner of an early 70's Martin D28 with no truss rod, that I am not able to play because the action is so high, which breaks my heart, I'm with the "only guitars with truss rods" club.

Lots of good stuff in Pizzarelli's A Train solo. Thanks for posting this.
Transcribing is something that I really love and I really enjoy! I feel more comfortable learning and transcribing than writing, probably because when I was student at conservatory I had a lot of...
It's always a little bit tricky to write the transcription properly, for many reasons but principal rhythm and ornamentations...! I feel always more comfortable learning by ear the solos than...
The headstock that Gibson put on the later Epis is what looks wrong to me. The original Epi headstock was known as the moustache, not open book, because it's subtly different, a little more of a...
After years of messing around with picks of all materials and prices I have come to the conclusion that the 1.5mm - 2mm tortex is best for most things. 0.75 for (American style) rhythm. Birelli...
