Diminished Triplet Exercise

I posted this demo on Youtube a few days ago. I got a handful of comments about the riff I play over the D7 the first time around and again at the end. I got it from something I heard Roy Lanham do. It makes a great exercise for the right and left hands. Here it is in both directions for those you interested.

Josh Dunn Archtop Pickup Demo

Josh sent me this beautiful demo of his L7 with bronze strings and a Gibson BR-9 amp. Go check him out if you get a chance. If you’d like more info on the pickup shoot me an email.

Smokey Hormel Special Deluxe

This was super fun to build for a guy that was a big influence on me early on, Greg “Smokey” Hormel. I’d go hear Smokey play around LA in the mid/late 80s. One gig in particular I remember clear as day. He played Charlie Christian’s Till Tom Special followed by “Gatemouth” Brown’s Okie Dokie Stomp. I’m still trying to play like that 35+ years later.
