Episode 70 – The Telecaster and Developing Your Ear

This week I continue jacking my jaw about the five core guitars. This time it’s about the Telecaster!  Check out the video below where I play a Telecaster and review the Glendale Guitar brass replacement saddles. Listen to it!

I talk a little about developing your ear, so you can trust your ear. You gotta be able to trust your ear.

  • Think about the chords and notes you hear in the music you listen to
  • Are any of the notes you hear open notes?
  • What kind of guitar might the player be using?
  • What amp?
  • Pedal?
  • Which pickup? Neck? Bridge?

Episode 68 – Listener Feedback… Yes more…

Honestly I love it! You all drive this show! I got a follow-up email about a hum on two different pedal boards with two completely different issues! It’s never one thing. A chat with a new friend from down under whom you will recognize as an old friend. More talk about lessons and teaching. Yep, you can listen to it now…

Episode 65 – Parts Guitars

This week lets talk about parts guitars, franken-teles, and mixo-casters. Okay, the last one I just made up. So I’m updating you all on some of my projects and approaches to guitar builds – pros and cons, choosing parts, relics, finishes and so on.

I misspoke when I said “Bumble Bee” guitars in the beginning of the episode. What I meant was “King Bee” guitars. Sorry…

Share your parts guitar project photos!

Let the rambling begin!
