For Galt you can play Abm6 (tritone’s minor in Barry-speak): Ab (root) is the b9 of G7; B (m3) is the 3rd; Eb (5th) is the #5; F (6th) is the b7. Let the bass player take care of the G. For other...

Playing melody in thirds, fourths, etc.

of course. It's not somewhere I get that often but I would love to meet you if I"m anywhere in the area. You're pretty much plugged into US players. I'm surprised given how many great European...

Used Conti 7-string Prototype archtop guitar

I don’t doubt it. I like blue bell vanilla personally. But I’m such a fan of chocolate that I prefer their Dutch chocolate flavor, even though I readily acknowledge that it is not the same quality as...

Playing melody in thirds, fourths, etc.

Allen LF or 1x8” Chichuahua or Kendrick Solo7

Playing melody in thirds, fourths, etc.

What Christian means is that if a big band chart says Galt, It first and foremost means that that should not play A (major 9) or E (major 13). The less important information in the Galt symbol is...

What not to do on a gig

Thanks, yeah I agree it's a waste of money and I'll likely wait for now. I have stuff arriving this week to redo the Emperor's electronics and it just felt a bit odd to reinstall the cheap original...
