malafemmena - jazz guitar solo (THE LOAR LH-600)

[C4nto92]

sorry it is possible to have the tab ??



[gianlucadebari]

@C4nto92 sorry, I haven't done it for this song...

[voxwerx]

Such great tone- I'm sure you just helped the folks at "The Loar" sell some guitars!

[gianlucadebari]

@voxwerx :o) thank you

[kamlapati]

Great stuff! Nice tone, excellent playing, beautiful arrangement!

[inky960]

Beautiful. If you're just learning this style, you're doing very well. Great arranging, too. There's an LH-600 and an LH-700 here, and I play the 600 all the time, just love the more mellow tone. Yours sounds awesome - what strings are you using?

[gianlucadebari]

@inky960 hi, many thanks. the strings are some thomastick .013 flats. I also like very much d'addario's chromes. the action here is as low as possible before buzz

[inky960]

@gianlucadebari Nice - and I hadn't even noticed the pickup! Are you amplified here? These guitars have such great natural "reverb" - it's hard to tell sometimes. Sounds acoustic - like mine. (I use D'Addario Flat Tops - smooth bronze, louder and brighter than chromes; not for everybody, but I like them. Good for shell comping.) Again, beautiful playing. People don't realize how very difficult this style of guitar is. You're very good at it.

@inky960

hi, no I'm not amplified here.

the pickup you see here is a kent armstrong 2D handmade (see at archtop.com). it is only 8mm high. I'm still finding the right amp setup on my two amps (a polytone MB II and a fender twin reverb) : they work fine with a gibson 175 but you have to work a little with knobs to save the acoustic tone. by the way I have an mp3 of this song with this guitar plugged directly in the zoom h2. I could send it by email...

[inky960]

@gianlucadebari Yes - please send the .mp3... I appreciate this very much. If my email address isn't accessible from here (I think it is), send me one from yours and I'll reply.

[inky960]

@gianlucadebari - Hi again! I just bought some Thomastik "Plectrums" strings for this LH-700; I'd never found the right strings for it, never have been happy with its tone. (Love the 600, though!) I'm about to restring, and I'm hoping. /// I'd still love the file you spoke of -- you can send to lorenwhitaker AT hotmail dot you-know-what.

Your playing is very, very good. Would love to hear more through the 8mm pickup! (Not 1/8" - sorry.) Keep up the splendid playing.

@inky960 What is the biggest difference between LH-700 and LH-600?

I've read that LH-600 has a more mellow tone, is it true?

great job! keep the videos coming!

[gennsalv]

Godibile! Fra le tante belle cose che fai in questo brano mi piace sottolineare la scelta delle note per rimelodizzarlo in vari momenti, il gusto e la delicatezza dell'improvvisazione, l'armonizzazione, il tocco, qualche volo veloce...L'attenzione dell'ascoltatore è "captata" perchè vuole sentire cosa accadrà negli attimi successivi,

anche quando, infine, l'immagine si dissolve e non restano che gli ultimi accordi e le ultime note, a perdersi nel silenzio...Bravo!

[gianlucadebari]

@gennsalv - gennaro, sei sempre gentilissimo e attento: fa piacere suonare e sapere che poi ascolterai e commenterai. a presto

[rpguitar]

Sweet. Lovely tone and engaging arrangement with lots of surprises for the listener.

[gianlucadebari]

@rpguitar - many thanks, really...



[robertm2000]

Ver well played. And I'm guessing - you arranged it didn't you? Because I like the arrangement also. Well done.

[gianlucadebari]

@robertm2000 - thanks. yes, it is my arrangement: I'm studying some joe pass's solo guitar tunes and I'm trying to use what I learn...

[robertm2000]

@gianlucadebari I'd say you are learning very well! keep up the good work and thanks for sharing it with us.
