GUEST,bankley Jazz, anyone? (106* d) RE: Jazz, anyone? 27 Jul 11


yup.... I have a fine Eastman oval hole archtop with flatwound strings in my arsenal... it's a handmade copy of an early Gibson L4 that was favoured by Eddie Lang before f-hole archtops were introduced in the 1920`s... special sound... I`ve been learning some Joe Pass things, Lenny Breau harmonic clusters to go with the Manouche swing...

I heard the word ``jazz`` itself came from the French Creole word jasser, to talk or `rap`... could be, coming from New Orleans and all..
