Thx. for the help Mang! Congratz on the your new suweet baby! I'm sure the guy who sold you that is really, really, sad... I am, I truly am, I miss her... I'm sick... Peace... Andres
Hey Jason, here's some reasoning I pray... Once you have a J Custom in your hands, and I hate to say this, an older J, at least an '02 or older, back when they used only the LoPro's. And, which I also think is obvious, the better selection of wood used and the much better flame tops, bound...
During your experimentation, remember your style and technique of picking will be adjusting. Even more, just simply the force in which you have to play with going to bigger, heavier strings, especially if your staying in standard tuning or ones close. Because you experimenting is the best way...
Yea, I've heard what he's talking about, when momentarily, something sounds out of tune in an orchestra like that. It will be a little while, but I plan on picking up a fretless, probably a Vigier. Your right, it would be cool to see more experimentation done with fretless instruments, JI or...
Hey Leo, the first note struck in the second sound sample listed just intonation & equal temperament, sounds closer to what Slim's sounds like. I need to take my laptop in for repair, then I should learn how to download a few songs off his disk and send them to you, so you can hear all the band...
Vigier, I think is how you spell it, they make a good one I believe. Bumblefoot(Ron Thal), plays a fretless made by them, so I would think they have some good guitars. I think I'll get one to, I've been wanting one to do JI tuning, my friend agreed to help me alter one of mine, but a fretless...
That is such excellent information and great opinions on some of the theory you have. But I would say if we stay with the fundamentals, even the statements I quoted in the book, are basically true, such as the happy chord, that is a matter of opinion, but overall we know it to be true just like...
Hey Leo, I finally found my book! I haven't checked those sites yet, but I bet the Just Intonation one is going to say alot of what I'm going to quote from the book here. So here goes some basics now that we understand all what we are saying, etc., etc. Just Intonation:using natural harmonic...
No more 7's needed, got em all! Went ahead and got a K7 BG, and another XL RB, I'm selling alot of my lower end model 7's I mentioned on the bay so if you'd like to check them out, I'll be putting some more up later. Still need a couple sixxers though The RG21B & I found a thang for a...
Down to only two... Ibanez RG1077XL BK (if it's blue, I still may consider) Ibanez J Custom RG21B and that's it! Keep on the look out! I may be putting some babies up for sale before going to the bay! Thx., peace, Andres
Hey Leo, I'm back in town, but busy, busy! I will make it a point to find my book on Just Intonation and throw some info on this thread which I'm sure you'll love! Thx. for the clarification I pointed out, that there with your concluding sentence lets me know we are now on the same page...
I thankyou for your knowledge and politeness regarding our difference of understanding. But don't look at it as Just-Tempered, it's Just Intonation, the other is equal tempermant. I will get back in town Tuesday, I will find my book by Slim Gorba on Just Intonation and share some things so...
You all have very knowledgable and accurate input, very thourough. But the only simple point I'm making, is not that I don't understand all of the theory behind your facts. I'm simply stating a fact, no equal tempermant instrument can produce a natural harmonic, b/c only a true, pure, natural...
My friend has Just Intonation basses & guitars, and yes, your right, a fretted note on a JI instrument is just that, but when you hit harmonics on the JI instruments, two notes sing out instead of one as is equal tempermant, do a little more research into Just Intonation, it's actually off more...
No, I wasn't exactly referring to Baritones in particular, just that Scott said "natural harmonics", which regardless, no equal tempermant instrument can achieve a natural harmonic, so by us as guitar players to say an equal tempered harmonic is natural, in theory, and all actuallity, that is...
Actually, there are No natural harmonics on any equal tempermant instrument. You will only achieve natural harmonics on a Just Intonation instrument. In actual theory, even when a guitar, for example, is in perfect tune, any and all chords, for example, any major chord is actually, out of...
Will do, need to get some back from my tech first & get the ones down there that are still on there way. Would like to also get these last five Ibz'z at least, and it be sweet to have my new side rig, just sold all the pieces to my other I was putting together. Next year's goal is getting my...
Thx. for the prop's & inquiries guys... Yea, jemsite, sevenstring, friends here in home-town, & a few really cool ebayer's have helped me find alot fast! The AM1QM my tech still has, gonna throw a LoPro on it and sell the Edge. And to start, to answer Drew's question, she'll go in E flat/D...
Nice Ken... I was going to consider the one that was all black, no green, never see them though & now I've got those covered. Happy you dig your new UV mang! So your roomy's pretty hooked on the XL? Well, I'll throw him the $1,350 + shipping if he needs some X-mas $$$ to by his sweet little...
