Funnily enough, I bought a couple of Squier offsets recently, just to see what they were like. Even with 'regular' 10-46 round wounds, Fender 25.5" scale lengths as well, I can get a pretty good 'traditional' type 'Jazzy' tone with the Rhythm switch on and the Tone backed off. I'd Still like to try the Flat-Wound experience though, both for Sound and Feel. I have a couple of semi-hollows but I don't want to mess with their setups by putting heavier gauge strings on them. For mounting something like Thomastik JS112s, I'm trying to decide whether to get an 'affordable' Jazz Box or an open sounding semi-hollow like the Gretsch G2622 (centre block 'weight relieved').

I think I saw this guitar at guitar center!

Well played

Both sound great . comes down to mojo after that. lol

2 years later- whats your impression? I have the book but not sure I "get it".

Has anyone ever watched Les Paul play? Seems every jazz guitar player with the 175 mindset needs an education. I noticed one commenter wrote about "Les Paul invented the Les Paul hence a Jazz guitar." I have played Jazz on a Gibson Sunburst V..."The V" people were shocked at the sound...why? It's the player as much as the guitar. Kudos to you for playing what you Love..

Tele with a CC and Mi Cosa. Nice video!

Beautiful sounding guitar. BTW,is anyone else a little distracted by the picture in the back ?

I always hear this, i have a lot of guitar's already. 😆 if i ever get another tele, itll have to have a belly cut.

It’s a great book. I recommend it to all jazz guitarists

You're playing a mandolin

I know it’s not lotion 🧴 cause U ashy bruh ! LOL ( just jokes )

I'm 21 I've always preferred flatwounds I play country rockabilly blues bluegrass and jazz

1) Rent is too darn high even for Sam Ash. 2) Corporate take over of Sam Ash, no longer family owned. 3) guitars have gotten so good at all price points that you can buy them on line and be probably be happy with it.

I saw him play in duet with Grégoire Maret- a Toots Thielman tribute. He really did play so relaxed I couldn't believe it. The only problem with his book is that Kenny was a child prodigy and I am not sure he struggles like most of us.

Years ago I sold my beloved SG and Princeton Reverb to a friend with the "deal" that I could buy it back when I wanted to.Big Mistake. LOL. After not seeing him for a decade he shows up at my door wanted to sell it back in a panic. And I was very happy about it. The other way to sell is a commission. Yes, you lose 30% but no photographing the instrument, shipping hassles etc... And its out of the house with a surprise check later.

Sweet! Is it a custom shop? Would love to hear some details about how and why you decided on this particular tele. Sounds amazing.

Beautiful guitar, beautiful tone and playing Sir. I am going after a Nash tele with lollar pickups soon. I hope I get a similar sound. Question -- I play an Epi 335 currently, will scale length be a big adjustment to the Fender scale length?

Beautiful guitar and fabulous playing!

Congrats on the new Tele! Jazz on a Tele with its Fender scale is an underrated playing experience-highly recommended!

Beautiful guitar and playing! Nothing beats the excitement of a new guitar

One of the best guitar player's I've ever heard very nice brother. Telecaster is Awesome

Beautiful looking and sounding guitar!

Чувак как же ты крут

Whacks new guitar's headstock on tripod

Love that CC pickup 👍 great playing too

seeing a childlike joy on a grown person will never get old. youth and vigor is in the heart. Beautiful axe! I am a tele lover myself (inspired by Ted Greene)

🎸👍

Tim Lerch inspired?

SUPERB PLAY!! Cordoba Classical Guitars and Others Classical Guitars can really last for many Family Generations with the proper care and maintenance; and the melody than comes out of them makes You want to keep playing for long hours. B.T.W., what the name of The Melody You were playing?

Just masterful, lovely.

I love the thumb

Sound great - both guitars sound just like you. One with string noise.

Great playing, as always. Lovely dog!

Read it twenty years ago , didn’t get as much out of it as I had hoped … may have to revisit… also you call yourself a hobbyist but imho you play at way higher a level than 90 % of guys I see playing out making $ at this my friend!

your dog seems to have relaxation perfected

Yes, good points about a worthwhile read.

Minor7thb5 This particular gauge of strings was also designed for Musicians who have either an injury, lack of mobility, or lack of dexterity in their fretting hand who want to play Flatwound strings but can use the lightest gauge.

🙂

Love it man!
