It's 'Truss rod adjustment' season here in Southern Oregon. We went from one of the driest summers on record to multiple days of 1in or more rain. No point in putting the cover back because the report is for warm dry weather next week. How's all your instruments holding up with the changing of the seasons?
I've been enjoying Oscar Peterson, particularly enjoy his comping and chord melody. I hear the voicings from the first lesson in Rich's fingers style course in it.. granted he has 10 fingers to make chords with (and I swear a couple toes sometimes)
what amp do you all like for jazz? Seems like the Henriksen Bud is the best in breed, not quite ready to shell out > 1k at this point though. My tube amp sounds great, but too heavy to haul around. Maybe one of the Quilter power blocks and a small cab?
Sweet 16 I bought from Rich is scheduled to arrive today... I feel like Darren McGavin (sp?) in Christmas Story doing a jig and singing "Tonight, tonight, hot-damn it's coming tonight"
What's everyone working on these days? I started the Fingerstyle Playing and Arranging course. I'm also working on Rich's arrangement of Little Surfer Girl. (new guy here)
