I agree with you Mike.. plus, he doesn't seem to have any problem with his instrument until the horns start their fills, when he starts waving his arm at them and it all goes downhill from there. If ...

Just read about Vibes on Wikipedia. Interesting. Still seems like not that much to go wrong IMO.

Before he loses his cool, he waves his left arm in a downward motion several times at the band... I don't know what else that can mean, other than bring down the level... it could be the level of the ...

A few bars of "Tequila" would fit right in there... Very Happy

Don't melt any of it down. It would make an excellent boat anchor as it is. Razz

Apparently on his, he could. He had hearing problems, I think he was having difficulty hearing himself over the band, so when they starting doing the fills he tried waving them down, didn't work, he ...

Sounds to me like everyone is trying to put as many licks in a solo as they can even if they don't fit..Sorry just my take on this. Ron

It doesn't look like part of the act to me, looks realllllly mad about something. Piano player is getting a big kick out of it.

What a player though. Look what he (and Barney Kessel, one of my fa ...

What Dave M said. He da man!

Of course, I never copy a solo unless it's an identifiable part of the song, but there's nothing wrong with listening and studying what other players have done, especially those better than yourself, ...

I agree completely about Santana's sound. I think he never sounded as good as with that old SG Special w/p90's. Mine was a '64, Santana was not an influence in buying it, found it in a pawn shop in ...

Mind-blowing playing, and yet typical Curly. The chords he could come up with, and his phrasing, were something else. Creativity like no one else. As Dave said, "a class by himself". Voc ...

Re: P-90 hum - it also matters what application and amp one is using. A jazz guitar into a low-gain clean amp is very different than a Les Paul into a high-gain, cranked-up, or otherwise distorted amp ...

By the way I also had a Les Paul Special with those "hum canceling" P100's, I didn't like them much.

I usually edit to fix spelling or clarify wording... I thought I had that there, but either way... no biggie as you said.

You won't need to route the pickups, you already have the largest size routes. The other smaller pickups, such as the P90, mini-humbuckers, Gretsch Filtertron, are available in large humbucker route ...

P90's also have much HIGHER OUTPUT than typical Fender-style single coils, you might take that into account, that more signal output, even if there MAY be more hum for some people in some situations, ...
