Hey Duke- are the guitars all your personal guitars, if so that is an incredible collection!
Duke, I really like the surf green stratocaster. I have a strat the same color with a maple fretboard that I love to death. Someday should i play half as well I would be happy.
Hi Eric, Yes all the guitars I use on my lessons are from my collection. Many of them I have already traded away though! I change guitars like socks. Duke
Hi Eric, Yes they are mine alright. Some I have already sold or traded though. Duke
Hey Peter, Thanks, yes, surf green is the coolest of all guitar colors! Duke
BG, Yeah, I just love playing different axes all the time. Bad habit! Duke
Terry, No the L-5 is nlong gone, but it did go to a good home and I have played it on a gig when I was in the owners home town. Duke
Hi,
I am really enjoying the lessons - especially the one's from "wobble walkin". What is (are) the make of guitar you use on "all of me" and on Ïf I had You"? Also do you mostly use an unwound G string? Having a background playing rock I started of with 009 E string -- then when dabbling in Jazz/Blues I went to 013 E string and tapewound. I am now lightening up the strings for two reasons -- one is age, the other is that I am a bit heavy handed and heavy strings sound a bit "thuddy" under my fingers. I have just turned 60 and am enjoying playing more than ever. Your lessons are a big part of this..thanks Terry
Hi Terryguitar, Thanks! I'm glad you are having fun with them. I do mostly use a unwound G because I still bend the G string when I play jazz. I sometimes use a light gauge flatwounds set with a wound G. As far as that guitar , it's a JW Murphy archtop. Look up hiis guitars, they're great! Duke
