Hollow body guitar
Looking for some help for my next guitar purchase I have an Epi 339 semi hollow body guitar. I use it for most of my playing--BB to SRV. Most of my playing is done through headphones once the wife has gone to bed. The nice thing about the 339 is that it has enough volume unplugged that I often just ...

Re: Saddle replacement
I am assuming your tunomatic is setup to match the radius of the fretboard? How well does the curvature of the strings work for the slide barring all strings? Have you made any other adjustments to comoensate for the curvature?

Saddle replacement
I have a Charval DS1 guitar I would like to set up for slide playing. With the stock Tune-o-matic bridge and stoptail I can not level out the string heights.

Re: Chord identification
Hope the gigs went well for you. I love watching Papastache, he makes me giggle. Very interesting videos. It will take me some time to process the information but it does look helpful. It always surprises me how easy it seems to be when watching those who have paid their dues. Thanks again for the l...

Re: Chord identification
I don''t play for people and certainly don't sing, but I like the suggestion. I do find that I sometimes have melodic lines running in my head where I would like go but just wasn't sure how to get them out. I have been tabbing some licks as I learn them so I have a record of what I've done--they are...

Re: Chord identification
Thanks Fenson. Your approach is definitely a little different than typical instructions. I will play around with it and see what I can do with it. I am playing over just instrumental backing tracks so there is no pre-determined melody line, simply a set rhythm.

Re: Chord identification
Thanks for your replies. The video was very interesting and helpful. My reason for asking about chord identification came from other reading sources saying that minor pent could be played over minor chords, major pent could be played over either major or minor chords and over dominant 7 chords the m...

Chord identification
I have been playing guitar now for almost 2 years mostly learning from online teachers. I am starting to learn lead and soloing techniques for blues. I have two questions that I hope someone can help me with: 1. I have learned the 5 minor pentatonic shapes and I keep reading that certain licks sound...
