Well if you mean writing out a song with a walking bass, I'm doing it. Here's what I have so far. Kinda simple but still took me forever and I've got 16 more bars to go. Oy Vay

Maybe it's a format issue. Can you phone play mp3's. I assume that's the format

Suppose that depends on the use case for the 335. Straight up jazz then use them but if for blues/rock then probably not. His strings are gonna be hard to bend but if you're not doing that then use them.

I've got a Hendriksen. Not sure about best in breed but it works for what I do.

I find it very useful

I don't

Looks like a V/V, V, I in F based on that limited info. The G7 is a secondary dominant. This sequence is probably preceded by Dm7 or D7 so it's just back cycling through the circle of 5ths. It's the same way you'd play over the B section of rhythm changes.

UPDATE I just listened to the song, it is definitely not Fm and it's not D minor )if that is what you meant to type) it is F (though I could see where confusion might arise between F and Dm). I only saw one lead sheet for this but it showed the song centered around F6 which is like Dm7/F so maybe that's from where the confusion arises.

Uh, oh Bob Carey I see an L-4 purchase on the horizon

Not specific to a 175 but I think wooden bridge makes for a more mellow, softer sound. And I think rosewood would be more in that direction than ebony. I'll bet Rich Severson had done this on multiple guitars and can describe it better.
