The Totally Miscellaneous non-Alembic Guitar and Bass Thread

That's interesting Dave; I half-expected your playing style goals to mirror your bass technique. 😊

#3 Son spent his college years teaching himself to fingerpick like Townes Van Zandt.

Near the end of that time, he was home, & the drummer & lead player from his high school band came over; the bass player not being in the vicinity, the lad pulled out his (now my, pretty much) bass, and they commenced in to jamming.

Townes on bass is a very nice thing; I bet a good bass player on guitar would work too (especially if you do fingers on the fat string thing).

Kind of a fun watch. Geo. Gruhn with a trio from his personal collection;
1924 Gibson L-5,
1902 Martin 00-42
1852 Martin Custom, Size 1

Of course time only runs in one direction, but he's really aged since I last saw him. That was 29 years ago when I was living in Nashville. My boss at the case shop and him were friends so on a quiet afternoon we'd go down to the shop on Broadway. I got to see the cool stuff (and the snakes) upstairs.
