Hey Jimi, if you want post an image---> If the pic is on your phone i haven a clue

Cool old strat. I know there are two schools for preference, but i dig the fat head. Original colour? If so, any idea what they called it?

pretty cool jimi. the pic of your strat is not working on my end. would be interested to see a full photo

How do you measure that? Jus curious. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- I think it's kind of fucked up that someone would get their ass on their shoulders about who can and cannot post here. I take offense. I RARELY post in this thread, but I follow...

Pretty damn cool. I wish they would have touched on string gauge and possible tension limitations, if any. I'm guessing you go too light and it will sound real tinny. Too thick, you bend a string too aggressively and :eek:. If these things caught on it might add a whole new lexicon of geetar...

Cig butts work in a pinch. Jus' kidding, sorta. :o Back when I gigged regularly, it was kind of weird how when the drumber alone was doing sound check, whack a mole on the snare, it was painful. But as soon as we ran through a song together things evened out and it was bearable. Equal...

I have an old early 70's FG-75 Yamaha, the guitar I basically learned to play on. The guitar had been everywhere with me. I absolutely loved that little guitar, but it had become unplayable.....a bit of a neck twist and quite a bit of bow. Just for the hell of it I put it in the hands of a...

Is that the same one you were playing in one of those jamfest videos what was posted some time back? If so, sounded good, genuine off the shelf store bought sound. Either way, helluva job. How far are the strings off the fret board?

Where's the track/project? No sign in the clinic, nor here. I'm psyched to hear! Not to be a band wagon jumper, but i want me one of them steel geetars too!

maybe listen to some horn players....different phrasing and use of scales/patterns/improv

Mayor of Simpleton--->great practice busy bass...I still can't nail it with proficiency ^^ not me

Every Time You Go Away--->smooth fretless

sounds like it's possibly a bass played way up the neck, as much as anything tone coming from big fat bass string(s)

The op asked identify these chords that he is using. Simplistic chord substitutions is not going to get you there. The open strings add flavor.There's also the walk up on the turnaround from em7, bm7, to gmaj7, where when playing the bm7 the bass note is not b, but f#. I'm not familiar with the...

Mutt I reckon I have a ground problem. It quiets down when I touch pups or knobs/controls. But not strings or bridge. It originally had a Burns tailpiece trem bar. It now has a Bigsby, which covers a hole in the top of the body that accommodated the Burns. Sounds pretty fucked up and i'm not...

thanks, i'll mess around with height starting in line with various flat tone settings on amp. got another question but won't go off topic asking here

Hey Muttley... That '62 Gretsch I picked up, for whatever reason some jackhole had adjusted the neck pickup poles so high they were actually buzzing the strings. Straight away I tweaked them all down while I was sorting things out, hoping there were no other probs. There weren't, luckily. Neck...

Ha. But didn't Johnny ring out the entire chord? Anyway, I've edited my original post. Thanks for the headsup Beags. Might wanna double check my work though.

Ha......sorry! I'm not a tabs guy, reading or writing. Maybe he/she will figure it out anyway. That was a fair amount of work, and still bungled the job. Oh well. I thought it looked kind of funny, left handed guitar or something. lol @ (should I rewrite? :facepalm:)
