My friend Julie (tenor sax,me Epiphone archtop) and I had our first play together today and it went pretty well. We spent most of the afternoon on 'I got Rythm' using the C chart kindy posted by...
Everything on a guitar adds a part to the the final tone of a guitar and of course there is a subtle yet hearable difference in different fretboard woods. I‘m building Teletypes and I can always hear...
