In Central Virginia, Charlottesville/Gordonsville/Orange.. Bishop Stern is the man to see. Expert repairs, fair pricing, fast turn around.
Presumably there was a dent or hole or crack of some kind that a repair person thought should be filled. That could be a good thing, or a bad thing depending on exactly what the situation was....
No solutions for your 66' Deluxe Reverb but some funny anecdotal experiences with fellow musicians tube amps: A friend had an amp, Fender Hot Rod Deville, 4x10, MIM, that would intermittently...
I just finished up 2 of the video lessons from PG. I got a lot of stuff I can use from it. I also found that it de-mystified the stuff I am hearing and seeing from PG. Here's what I learned about...
Is this in my head? I don't know what to think He knelt to the ground and pulled out a ring And said, Marry me, Juliet You'll never have to be alone I love you and that's all I really know I...
Eh ... lots of good ones ... Red, Ivy, Stay Stay Stay, plenty out there that might hit a person the right way. But I think her genius is more of the Bowie, MJ variety. Not so much a musician as a...
Well, I certainly have respect for Cobain's lyrics. T.S. not so much. Willing to be schooled though. Could you point me to one song where her lyrics are special in any way?

Alternative music for youngsters is important, for a lot of reasons, and I followed it for years. But 5 or 7 decades of Garage Rock has uncovered very few "geniuses", and I dare say that Cobain was...
Filling, as in, something (maybe paste?) was put in the back of the neck!
Ear players, if they sound good, simply integrated sounds they heard others do, but those "others" probably did the groundwork using theory to help their lines make sense. And if those others didn't,...
Haha sorry about BH. I don't need to characterize musicians as theory or ear. Most good advanced musicians are gonna be a mix. I had the discussion with my teacher Tony Monaco if he thought his...
Nope. Sure didn't. I mentioned Barry in my earlier post. He was an example of someone I could think of who obviously knew tons of theory but also didn't really seem too hung up on organizing things...
Filled or filed? One fills in dents, dings, etc. One might "file" frets, also known as fret dressing, to improve playing feel and tone.
What would your choice be?
