Looking for a "jazz box"

Inversions

I'm with you on both counts. That said, I do like the 6L6 sound as well, so it would be nice if I could get a "best of both worlds" setup. They say that a KT77 can straddle those two worlds,...

Koch Little Gristle - Killer amp for intensive daily use in (and out) of jazz

I like EL34s, so I wouldn't be interested in swapping the power tube out. EL34s, in general, give a thick, meaty tone. Which is what I am also after. The EL34 is one of the reasons I took a chance on...

And yet I think that's exactly what you're doing when playing from a chord sheet or (from a more familiar, early music universe) playing a figured bass. Some players really have an enormous mental...

Holy ****, my (musical) ears are bad

Of course, every different instrument you learn adds something (if you manage not to let it distract you from your main instrument and all that). But no, I wasn't joking about using a fretless to get...

Holy ****, my (musical) ears are bad

The first thing I think about is how much I have to offer them lol. Back in NYC I had a list of drummers and bass players and I knew their price points. Usually if the gig is well paid no trouble...

Drummer has left, what now?

I also recommend Functional ear trainer. Notes with reference to a key centre more useful than intervallic at least for beginners Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Ear training shmear training. Get into the habit of learning music by ear. I’m seriousness if you have a bit of dead time, ear training apps are cool. But recognising am interval by ear is less...

My Casino 2023 is very good for the money, plays and sounds very decent even all stock. Great for "no worries-gigging".

I received the 65 Fender Princeton Reverb Reissue yesterday and now I'm in a real dilemma :highly_amused: I like different aspects of both amps. The Vox has a warmer sound but I prefer the bass...
