Anyone care to rate and comment on the available benders right now? I'd ideally like something I could incorporate into an 8 string tuning (probably with a mini 2 string fixed bridge that sat next t ...

Kind of SOL for sus 4 chords it seems? More than 2 voices?

C13 low to high C Bb C E G A C E ("Jules Ah See")

Thanks Nick. I can do split bar slants passably. I feel like I don't love the way they sound even if I nail them in tune...something al ...

Thanks Bill and Fred I guess I missed that memo. Much appreciated.

Don't you have a C7 on your third fret? Strings 1 3 4 5 are a C7th chord

Thanks everyone I'll work on that.

Bill I'm confused. 3rd fret on C13 would be Eb or C minor no?

Hello all

Trying my hand at doing some arranging in Jules Ah See C13.

Just wondering here with my Danny Boy attempt, I'm ending up with a fairly large jump from fret 5 to fret 12 and back so I c ...

This made me incredibly sad over the last couple of days. RIP.

BTW someone mentioned that Irealpro has no tracks in it. If you go to the forums section you can download huge dumps of chord changes. I don't know about country, but the jazz selection is huge and ...

TE Tuner is excellent. I have started using it for a metronome too, it's as good as the one I used to use which isn't supported anymore.

I think Itablapro is really excellent for steel. You can d ...

Me, too. Moon does that to me every time.

Just wondering, what percentage of this do you think it possible on non-pedal?

This rocks about as hard as anything rocks.

really nice work. very beautiful.

I'm not sure what you call the part of the guitar where the tuners attach on a steel guitar...but anyway, for builders, is there much significant difference between a metal or wooden head on the guita ...

Just wondering, is all that curly maple veneer or solid?

Regardless the wood choice and treatment is stunning.

That sounds right but I can't find it online? I wonder where I heard it.

Hey there

I have this memory of hearing a recording of the tune Sunny on PSG, it was great. I felt like it was Curlie Chalker but I haven't been able to find it. Not sure where or when I heard it ...

Personally I hate when the jack is on the bottom or angled towards the bottom. It's nice to be able to stand the guitar up on its end or put it in a stand and the jack gets in the way.

If you're into guitar making and get the stewmac membership, the half off on books is great because they have the Simpgyi and Gore guitar making books which are both great and super expensive.

Union scale!

To elaborate on the rules, as I made them

1) 2 necks (you can add a third bonus neck for extra credit)
2) NO pedals. But you can have a commercially available string bender (name the bender)
3) ...

Bill

Why would it be difficulty to blend the two? For me the point wouldn't be blending it would be having two different things. But I like the idea of them both being in C.

Mike

No problem. You're right, clearly. Still just pondering it. I appreciate your advice and that's why I'm on the C13 to begin with.

Absolutely Mike. I'm also making some guitars though and have been thinking about making a Bigsby style Joaquin double neck just to see if I could do it nicely so, I'd have to put something on the ot ...

Instead of practicing I'm wondering:

If you had a D8 and could pick two tunings that maximized versatility, what would you pick? Your own experience or ability notwithstanding, it doesn't have to ...

I could be wrong here but I think the volume and gain are like the knobs you'd have on a regular amp.

The master volume takes whatever sound you would coming out of that tube amp and makes it lou ...
