Black Lacquered Smith Special
Here’s a few shots of a Smith Special in black lacquer that I recently finished. Custom ordered in all black with a rattlesnake inlayed on the headstock, I put a lot of hours into it and am really pleased with the way it turned out.
JD’s Custom
Can’t believe it’s already been two years since JD picked up his custom guitar in the desert. Catch JD and the band on the road this summer. You can see their tour schedule here.
A7 Chord Run
Here’s a nice sounding chord run I got from Tal Farlow. I use it all the time for both solos and comping. He plays it behind Red Norvo over the 2 chord of Sweet Georgia Brown. Each chord is picked once and held for 2 beats and the last chord is held for 2 bars before it goes to the next chord, which in A would be a D7. Tal plays it over Bb heading to Eb. Hope you can use it!
