Outstanding intervallic and harmonic competence! I perceive inspiration from soul-jazz (Kenny Burrell, Grant Green etc.) and from Joe Pass, too, especially in chordal phrasing. Did I get it?
Sweet touch, lovely playing, loving your tone. May I ask... I'm looking at possibly acquiring the same model Gibson...can you describe the neck profile on something of this era please? I'm hoping the neck is full, as I do like a chunky neck! Many thanks for your video(s) 👍🏽
Thank you very much! Yes it’s a very chunky neck profile and it’s a round C or D shape - this one is made 1952. The earlier models had thicker neck profile. It’s definitely chunkier than the popular ’59 neck profile that a lot of guitar replicate these days. Had a 125TCD from 1965 and the neck was much thinner than the ’52. I’d say go for it, they are great value guitars especially with the original pickups! 🙂
Gosh, there are so many greats to study! My first musical love was the blues so there’s a lot of stuff I learned back in the day from Robben Ford, Robert Johnson, Stevie Ray Vaughan and many more. From a jazz context Pasquale Grasso, Charlie Parker, Joe Pass, Peter Bernstein, Jim Hall, John Scofield, Wes Montgomery are some of my heroes! Hope this helps! 🙂

where are you getting this blues language? Who do u study?
Definitely, he is playing blues with a jazz-minded attitude. Soul-jazz classics seem to be his inspiration.
I think Joe Pass is an influence. Edit-- he says so above....and Burrell, etc.
