Most of us play our accoustic guitars at the jam sessions here.
But I was just wondering how many of you also own and play electric guitars. What kind? And what amp do you have? Tell us about it.
As for me, I have a 1979 Gibson ES-175D, an arched…
I would suspect that if Gibson guarantees/warrantys the instrument then you'd just contact them to see what they will do to make the warranty good. They'll probably do the work themselves, but I'm just guessing.

Drop 3 chords are voiced 1-7-3-5,then1st inversion-3-1-5-7. The 3-5-1-7 gets you what guitar players com…
Thanks for the reply, Paul...
However, I can't see any use at all in calling a chord a "13" if it does not actually have a 13 note in it.
For the sake of debate:
If (in C) I play the 1-3-5 notes (C-E-G) I'd call that a C chord. Now I'll add the 6…
Congrats! Ellen and I celebrated our 11th Anniverary Saturday, May 16th.
