Yeah - that's a very interesting chord. Being the seventh chord build on the seventh step of the major scale it is a quite natural chord and has as such been...

All I say is that if you have played CC solos (and I have been through quite a lot) and if you play the Django solo you will find so many similarities that one...

Right. And that's the facts. Hamp said that the Flying Home theme came from him whistling the riff. I think rather it's a typical guitar riff and if CC knew...

Perhaps we can get away from what's been going on and discuss a new thread. I have an L5C and an L7C, both 1950s, together with several original CC pickups...
Exactly - one should not believe all kinds of stories. On the other hand it's interesting how people make up their own stories. And we can't go round checking...

Also, J. geils has a 30's L7 blondie for sale witha CC that he's recorded with. Maybe you can find out which recordings and hear the tone. ... [Non-text...

Just a short message from friend and neighbor of Barney's. Yes it was Barney's eighteth yesterday! Many of his closest friends and fellow musicians visited. He...
I noticed the lap sterl version with the CC pickups do not have the 3 mounting screws of the guitars. Is that only a mechanical requirement? Is that only a...

People have intsalled them but they do yield a different sound without those
magnets....
