Yeah, there's the improvisational nature, the need to be able to balance things going on at the same time, and then of course, lots of skills and preparation that pay off in the end. Cooking is a lot...
Me too - somebody's got to say it, right? ;) In fact, it seems musicianship often goes with good skills in the kitchen (just 2 names that come to mind: Darrell Scott and Enrico Gatti). For me,...
Hello @deacon Mark. I apologize if my posts looked like a high jack of your thread. I wasn’t trying to sell anybody on Halvorson’s or Okazaki’s guitars. I just noticed you said @Jim Soloway prefers...
I’ll send one over later. it’s not spectacular as yet. More utilitarian. I also need more space to put it. As with all shops, space is a premium. I appreciate your feedback and thanks for...
The real answer to your question is just spend hours swapping and testing pickups because your rig and playing style differs from mine. It's all player dependent. Even on something easy like a strat...

I grew up having slices of (whole-wheat) bread for breakfast and lunch, and have never felt like giving up that heritage after moving to France. Despite the bread culture in this country *) still...
True, Stochelo uses the point too, but in genera many of the younger gypsy jazzers use the shoulder of a 1.5 or 2mm Dunlop unless it's someone who's treating themselves to a Blue Chip or something...
Hmm... do you think it makes more sense to use the underwound on the Zephyr because it's bassier with the deeper body and I'd prefer to tame that a bit or does it make more sense in the Emperor...
Hmmm. Or could depend on the local market. I got my ES-175 for that price just a couple of months ago, because there's a little to no market in my area for archtop guitars. Or, at least from looking...
