Thanks guys. Bb6th seems to make sense. I was becoming more and more convinced that it couldn't possibly be E9. Great fills in that song.

I'm stuck on Gilded Palace of Sin these days, and I'm trying to figure out what Sneaky is doing on Sin City. Is he using C6 or E9? For the most part, did he stick with one neck or the other?
Thanks in ...

Thanks Michael. After much patient tweaking, it turned out the stop screw was the issue. Things sound MUCH better now.

I'd appreciate some direction on a minor problem I'm having with the F Lever on my Carter Starter.

I've been playing the Starter for about 10 months now, and over the past two months I've began regul ...

That's really interesting, Jody. As a matter of fact, I had a dream earlier this week that parallels your idea.

Thanks everyone. It's great to learn all about the giants. I'm going to track down a whole mess of these albums. Tom Bradshaw has a whole bunch of Curly on tape: [url=http://www.songwriter.com/bradsha ...

I've been reading an awful lot about Curly on the SGF. I'm sort of a newbie on the PSG, so I'm constantly learning about everything when I read what all you great people have to say.

Is that BE playing on Ray Price's "The Other Woman" album? That is some unbelievable tone as well. I just picked up 8 or 9 early 60s Ray Price albums last week. It's a double-header. One of the best p ...

Gary, I know how you felt!
