Here is my 1956 Gibson L7CN For sale. It includes a rhythm chief 1100 pick up from the 1960s mounted by a stick. Guitar is all original except for the pick guard set ups. I have three set ups one is acoustic, second is a Lollar blade Charlie Christian style pick up, And then the 1100 rhythm chief. Asking $5399 shipped domestic net to me.
Some light scratches and dings, but absolutely crack free. Frets are good and playable, but on the last crown. This is likely an update the next owner will need to do some time down the line.
Nice guitar but you want the same price as Reverb. You might do the forum a favor and give them a break if you sell it through the forum, you don't pay any fees.
A bump for a great vintage setup. Guitar is clean and great shape vintage pickup setup is solid and versatile. Knock $800 off is you don’t want the pickup.
I remember he did an interview with Mike Moreno and he said the L5 didn't have a great setup, but my impression was both had merits.
Anyway, didn't mean to derail the thread or take a side. I...
You guys are mad at tonewood. All the materials in an electric guitar that affect how it resonates end up affecting the amp'd sound. This especially includes the chief materials that it's made of,...
It’s almost like they are complex hand crafted instruments with natural inconsistency and some are just better than others.
I mean if someone gave me a Johnny Smith - i wouldn’t be averse… ;-)

I think we'll have to agree to disagree on that one. I can find many examples of him hitting/arpeggiating changes, and doing things like throwing in alt-dim7 material on V chords (beyond the one...
I think you're on to something. Ted and Ed basically played what was available at the time and probably didn't parse over it in the same manner an internet forum will.
Julian prefers Blackguards...
Bu the way, Fender needs to change the name of that guitar since its color no longer even remotely resembles the color of it's namesake, Lake Placid.
Maybe rename it after one of these? -- 10...
I have three Strats:
The black one has a maple board
The Ocean Turquoise one has a rosewood board
The Lake Placid Blue one has a roaster maple board.
They all look great, sound great and...
Well, that is honest! With Fender guitars, I have tended to do the same and have preferred a rosewood fretboard primarily because I just think it looks better. I don't know that my ears are good...
I bought one of Vinny's Campellones (V1K Custom) and it has a built in humbucker. It is first and foremost an acoustic guitar and is every bit as loud as your average flattop acoustic. I doubt the...
Op: you also want to work on outlining the changes. Jazz blues isn't only blues vocab on the 1 of the key. Although there is a lot of that and it's tough to go overboard with accumulating those...
I'm a little different.
I think it's good to learn tunes, but I think it's much more important (for me) to write songs.
Certainly, knowing some tunes can help in the writing of them. (I think many...
These Robben Ford performances posted in a different thread (Younger guitarists are discovering the joys of having a jazz box. Good!) are a crash course in blues playing:
