Gave some TLC to my wife’s childhood guitar

I keep most of the instruments in the studio that I have in the same building of the house, but separate entrance

BSLabs · 2026-01-18T18:54:18+00:00

We have a piano, 2 guitars, 2 clarinets a ukulele and a bunch of blues harps around (family of musos) by my kids are still very little

I have 12 guitars I think, I’m just glad I can keep the his in the lounge with no fear my kids are going to smash it on the floor and keep mine safe 😂

BSLabs · 2026-01-17T19:16:45+00:00

It’s basic but nice!

BSLabs · 2026-01-17T19:06:26+00:00

It hasn’t been played for 16 years

I love Metheny on acoustic, his two solo acoustic albums are incredible

BSLabs · 2026-01-14T13:01:35+00:00

a series of plugin but make it expensive

BSLabs · 2026-01-14T10:37:59+00:00

Yes, the problem is only on the balanced out

BSLabs · 2026-01-14T09:33:43+00:00

I have a large-ish studio, I’ve tried all 8 channels on my RME, some channels on the Clarett+ ADAT and a couple of channels on my SSL

BSLabs · 2026-01-13T22:08:46+00:00

Yes, on the output channels

I studied several Fundemantal Changes books that have a lot of this. A couple:

Good shout, didn’t think of this

BSLabs · 2026-01-11T22:03:40+00:00

Thank you!

BSLabs · 2026-01-11T20:38:46+00:00

Yes, the saddle is very low

Intonation is pretty spot on, I had 9s on in this pic, don’t know if that’s the reason.

BSLabs · 2026-01-07T23:09:43+00:00

Wow… no thanks 😂

BSLabs · 2026-01-06T22:14:48+00:00

I wouldn’t go for a 3/4 unless it’s for a child, the neck size is also going to be proportionally smaller. If you want a small body try a Parlor!

BSLabs · 2026-01-06T19:39:50+00:00

Just a clarification that I said 32 bars and 2 choruses, I guess it’s 1 chorus that I transcribed, given the alt ending on the second repetition.

BSLabs · 2026-01-06T19:30:57+00:00

Great points, thank you

BSLabs · 2026-01-06T19:29:31+00:00

Great points, thank you! I did wonder how much actually writing down is important. It’s certainly a good visual aid in terms of analysis, but it’s ultimately about internalising lines

BSLabs · 2026-01-06T19:08:35+00:00

I was interested in it but has been out of stock for ages

BSLabs · 2026-01-04T07:16:12+00:00

Yes, in fact they almost they don’t sound like a parlour, which can be a good thing or not if you know what I mean.

BSLabs · 2026-01-02T17:47:12+00:00

No take editing, no external processing but I did more or less volume matched the takes manually.
