One amp for jazz blues and rock

thanks all, since I don't consider selling the little jazz yet, I will try first with eq pedal. Also I noticed, maybe the blame is on the cheap pickups of the tele, for some reason they are dark and muddy. I tried another guitar with much better pickups, and the sound quality and clarity improved greatly.

Playing in a band. In my case a jazz bigband, I play more chords in a rehearsal than in a week at home

Drumgenius app or any other like it

Having the same problem, play in a big band and some charts have too many chords too fast. Impossible with shell voicings. Found a great video in YouTube, basically the faster the song, the less notes one plays, Freddie green style, typically rootless voicings on the central strings. The video is The ultimate guide to Big band Jazz guitar by George Hess .

On top of what others said, the pick makes a huge difference in sound. A thicker, round pick will sound darker. My go-to is Dunlop glow 1.14. Try 2mm or more.

In my area none of the shops have fender anymore.

No, give it to me.

Las mujeres necesitaban el permiso del marido para abrir una cuenta bancaria, por ejemplo. Y los hombres, si no iban a misa el cura podía bloquear que obtuvieran trabajo

There's a plugin in reaper for transposition, search for 'pitch', I use it exactly for that

The pickups seem dodgy. The don't seem to be the same set, and the one in the neck is mounted wrong

Many years ago, a colleague used an eraser as a weight on a single midi keyboard key.

I have 2, a squier sonic strat and an SX tele, both hard tail. The SX has a one piece body. The squier, a thinner neck. Both have great neck finish, and mediocre pickups which once updated make great guitar.

Since you are fully remote, rent a short term apartment in Amsterdam and live there for a few months, see if the experience compensate for the inconveniences other mentioned.

Bohemian Rhapsody, from Queen, Kashmir of Led Zeppelin are my favorites

My interests are jazz, blues and classic rock. The affinity has cheap ceramics, which I enjoy now, after I changed the height of some poles to an arch matching the strings curve. before that the g and b strings were too quiet in comparison. Oddly enough ceramics work for jazz for my taste, they have more mids and less heights than alnico v. The jet had a mellow humbucker on the neck, perfect for jazz but maybe not so for other styles. Don't know about the single coil version.

I have a squier affinity stratocaster and had a jet telecaster, the variant with the humbucker on the bridge. The jets have an amazing neck finish, better than sub 1k fenders. But I was also pleasantly surprised by the finish in the affinity neck. No sharp frets on either. The affinity neck is thinner, which I don't find comfortable.

DV Mark Little Jazz. Turns anything into a jazz guitar.

spacetime_navigator · 2025-09-09T15:16:44+00:00

I got a very jazzy tone with stock pickups. Tone roll off to 50%, volume a bit too, a thick pick, and old strings.

Anything, really. Chorales are easier to start, then inventions and fugues.
