  @emilernebro Gotcha thanks - so focus on the voicing and the right patterns on the roll. Makes sense. Sometimes I get hung up on figuring out the tab/lessons exactly as played vs. thinking about the principles they're capturing.

  So sorry for this incredibly late reply, your message got stuck in the queue and I just discovered it today.
  I'm so glad you liked my arrangement of "She's Always A Woman" !
  Unfortunately I don't have this particular song written out in TAB/notation. I hope that my instructional video (linked above) might be enough to learn most of it! Let me know if you ever have any questions, I'd be happy to answer them here on the forum!
  Kind regards/Emil

  Hi there everyone! I am new here having been drawn be Emil's videos of his exquisite soulful guitar playing.

  I have been playing guitar for many years and am interested to learn afro-latin guitar, like Brazilian classics etc... Can anyone advise me of a good teacher?

  Thank you!

  @emilernebro @25jonathan I recently started considering the same issue. As I've been playing more I noticed I naturally gravitated towards pinky anchoring. The problem for me is in the last year as I've gotten deeper into finger style and playing more often and longer, I get a lot of pinky pain and it starts to feel tired. I also might have some nerve issues from an old injury / cupital tunnel issues and sometimes it gets really numb and wants to stay curled up.

  I'm considering retraining to not plant my pinky just to avoid the pain/numbness, but since it's so instinctual I'm considering practicing with a rubber hand keeping the pinky tied to ring because its so hard to stop.

  So glad that you're enjoying the site Rodney! Thanks for the kind words! Yes, me and Joe did that interview a few years back - when we still had hair and teeth! (just kidding :) Glad you enjoyed it! Joe is a wonderful musician and friend. I'm thinking about making a lesson about the G6 tuning, since many people like to play my arrangements in that specific tuning! :) Will release it here on the site - maybe even later this month! I have some notation on HT&E from a workshop that I did a few years back, and I can send it to you - let me know if you have any questions on it! :) Kind regards/E

  What the title says :)

  I would like to move from my Strat to something that's a little more mellow. I don't want to look for an Epiphone/Gibson 335 because Gibson quality so variable and they've gotten so hostile to other manufacturers. Collings 35 are super nice but insanely expensive.

  So was thinking maybe a Tele with a bigsby (I think Emil is playing Ashton clone with a Bigsby on some videos perhaps?). But I really want to avoid single coils for this guitar.

  So maybe too many requirements, but if anyone has ideas would appreciate it. I usually play clean so really rely on the guitar itself for most of the tone and feel.

  Hi,

  When you see gear for sale, especially pedals, with someone accepting "reasonable offers" how do you usually gauge that? People seem to oscillate from "not a dollar less" to "half price.

  Hello,
  I wonder if this is a lap or pedal steel guitar that the soloist plays?:
  On other records of this artist the soloist is posing with lap steel, so possibly it could be that. But I am not sure, I am totally a beginner in steel guitars.
  Sometimes the solo consist of simple melodic patterns lacking slides, like from 2:58 to 3:20
  Does the soloist play it on the steel guitar, too?
  If someone is an expert on these, could he guess the tuning?

  Thanks !

  I didn't find the right solution from the internet.

  So- am semi-new to guitar building and completely new to the forum! My first kit was an SG-type 12/6 double neck. didn't come out great but not awful either and sounds ok. It has glued/epoxied in necks. Just recently acquired a strat kit. Of course it's got a bolt-in neck. Am a bit apprehensive to drill the 4 holes and twist in the screws- worrying if the neck might crack. It must happen now and then although I've never seen it. My other question IS- I haven't checked the frets and neck with a rocker or gauge yet but in the event the frets need leveling - is it fine to do that before drilling the neck fastening holes as long as the neck fits snugly in the pocket? Hope this wasn't confusing-

  cheers,
  bill

  Hi there!

  I’m using two microphones, and usually it’s a couple of Neumann TLM 102.
  From there I go into a simple preamp/daw which is called steinberg UR44. I use an iMac with protools.
  When I record I have one mic around the 12th fret and one mic on the bridge.
  In any recording software program like protools or similar, you can pan the channels right and left - and I usually pan one mic around 35 to the left and 35 to the right.
  I do a simple eq mix where I usually cut a bit of bass and get rid of a couple of harsh frequencies in the upper midrange etc. maybe boost the highs a bit on the bridge mic.
  And I add reverb to both channels.
  Very simple recording process and I don’t do much at all really, just two mics and a bit of work with eq and then add reverb.
  Kind regards /Emil

  @arman said in Need Help with ltd EC1000 PIEZO:

  Hi,
  I've got my ltd EC1000p several months ago and everything was working fine. but the other day when I plugged my guitar in JACK 1 with mono cable the magnetic pickup didn't work. when I use the mag/piezo selector only piezo pickup have sound. It means I don't have the blend of both magnetic and piezo or magnetic pickup right now. please help me with this. what could be the problem?
  it is good to know that when I use JACK 2 the magnetic pickups work fine and when I use a stereo cable in JACK 1, just piezo pick up have sound and nothing is coming out of magnetic pickups.
  I appreciate any help on this.

  The problem may be the mono cable or jack that you are using. Try using a different mono cable or jack and see if that helps. If not, it may be a problem with the wiring or circuitry of the guitar itself. You may need to take the guitar to a professional repair shop to have it looked at.

  About This Listing
  Larrivée Model L-03-12R Acoustic 12 String Guitar Description

  This acoustic 12 string guitar was made in Canada in 2003. This is a solid wood guitar featuring a maple bound solid Sitka spruce top, solid rosewood back & sides, a mahogany neck and a maple bound ebony fingerboard. The 25.5” scale length neck joins the body at the 14th fret giving a comfortable amount of play room:16" Wide (lower Bout) and 41" in Length

  The neck profile is thinner than you may expect and the guitar plays incredibly fast for a 12-string with low action and very easy playability on a smooth ebony fingerboard with maple binding. The X-scalloped bracing helps project and resonates beautifully. The head stock overlay and bridge are both made of ebony with a Larrivée logo inlayed on the headstock and dot inlays on the ebony fingerboard.

  This is one of the best playing 12 string acoustic guitars that I have ever played. It looks, sounds and feels fantastic and comes with the original Larrivée hard shell case. This is a fantastic player’s guitar that is setup perfectly and ready to make some great music!

  Specifications:

  Make: Larrivée Model: L-03-12R Serial Number : 64519 Year of Manufacture : 2003 Country of Origin: Canada Finish: Satin Natural Condition : Mint Body Type: Acoustic Upper Bout: 11.625” Lower Bout: 16” Waist: 10.25” Body Depth: 4.75” Top: Sitka Spruce Back and sides Wood: Rosewood Bracing: X-Scalloped Neck : Mahogany Neck Joins Body: 14th Fret Headstock Overlay: Ebony Fingerboard : Ebony Body Binding: Maple Heel Cap: Maple Fingerboard Binding: Maple Inlays: Headstock Logo, Dot Fingerboard Inlays Rosette: Herringbone Top Purfling: Multi-Strip Frets: 20 Frets Scale Length: 25.5” Nut : Bone Nut Width: 1 7/8” Hardware: Chromium Tuning Machine : Silver Larrivée Tuners Bridge: Ebony Saddle: Bone Compensated Bridge Pins: Compensated With Dots Case : Original Larrivée Hardshell Case

  Hi Emil,

  just wanted to give a small suggestion concerning organizing your lessons. I think it would be great to have "latest" filter to zoom in on the newest lessons on your site.

  Have a great day.
