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!
I thought so! My lil $600 Yamaha CP-125 digital piano is good instrument apparently. Better watch it or I'm gonna buy a vibraphone. I think I would do a good job on focusing on playing melody only....
Not the power amp stage. That’s an analog class d amplifier
The amps we’re talking about have physical knobs that lower the output of an analog amp. There may a DSP aspect of how it does that...
I lack experience with a wide range of amplifiers, so making a comparison wouldn't be fair. However, I've been using the Blue 6 in both quartet and big band setups, and it performs well (IMHO) in...
I toyed with that this evening. I kind of like how light the maj7 makes it sound, but I put a Dom 7 in there around bar 7-8.

Thanks very much. I actually use quite a bit of mic’d amp and DI in my mix for the body of the sound with the mike on the guitar mostly addi mg the stringy tizz and acoustic realism. Glad you like...
Yes, it's boxy compared to a Fender. I've done side-by-side comparisons with a friends amp and my Princeton TM, tweaking the tone stack this way and that, and without some sort of assistance from a...
Figured I'd post this here. This is my blonde '89 Emperor that I have modified to be more like a Harmony H-62/Espanada. Since it's a cross between an Emperor and an Espanada, I call it the Empanada...
I thought some more about it.
One of the Bose L1 models, at least, I think comes with a mixer that's similar to the Bose S1, which I owned briefly. There are three channels and I think...
57 Classics have sounded great in any guitar I’ve heard them in. You could possibly tease something slightly better out with some boutique humbuckers, but the return for cost will be very small.

Thanks for the suggestions!
Sorry, I meant Zephyr. Tired today and I did own a Triumph Regent years ago like the guy from Hot Club of Cowtown has. Gotta get my models right now that I own two...
You should see Ben harmonizing 4 moving voices on the fly, and reharmonizing it in 4 voices and melody on top in real time. It can be done if your harmonic concept is comprehensive. It helps to work...
