anyone still playing a EASTMAN T386 for jazz?

Some context for that advice from Peter Bernstein might be useful. He is a tune guy and it’s all in the tunes, but he’s also usually talking to students who have the fundamentals down. His advice to...

Give me time. I'm still debating whether to start it with a minor* and/or if bossa might sound nice... * The Jazz Standards site says the maj/min thing is, I quote, 'a bone of contention among the...

Just the melody.

Well i'm from Holland and it's strat's, Telecaster or some guitars with a "hockey stick" neck. For blues i bring my Ibanez Korean built as120. And there's a different sound. Comments i get are...

Hey i use a Mooer power macro s8. Use about 6 a 7 pedals. There's a switch to change power. One connection can be set on 9, 12, 15 or 18 volts. It's quieter then the daisy chain i have used or the...

Pedal board power question
