A while ago I made a transcription of a Joe Pass solo fingerstyle version of Joyspring, as I was fascinated to know how he made this into an effective solo guitar arrangement (I worked it out from that youtube video where he plays to some people in a guitar shop, plus bits from another version he recorded).
It’s an absolute pig to play, I still can’t play it properly. Increased my respect for Joe no end. Especially as in the youtube video he starts talking while he plays it!
Wired was my first, and still my favourite. Then I discovered Rough and Ready, Blow by Blow, and all the others.

I would have counted everything up until 2:50 as 6/4, based on the phrasing of the melody. After that I get a bit confused as the melody is the same but the drums is playing a different feel which...
What thin line Gibsons were made over the years? I know I've seen pictures of a couple of L5 thin lines. They may have been custom made, I don't know. Also ES 125 and Byrdland. BTW, I didn't mean...
This looks to be super impressive to create great field recordings anywhere that automatically sync to the the 4K video on your iPhone—the world’s smallest condenser mic in a tiny block form that...
Probably not (unless he made one to fit the available space) but a Kent Armstrong single coil floater, floating CC from Pete or even a DeArmond 1100 would probably fit.
Yeah, I have never bought, nor refused to buy, any guitar just because of the headstock. I'm unable to see how the headstock shape affects tone or playability. If that were on the list, it would be...
