Bernie's Tune improvisation on a 1936 Gibson Super 400

Описание: Hey guys, i’m glad to present a new guitar on the channel today, a 1936 Gibson Super 400. It will be the 2nd 1936 Gibson Super 400 on the channel so you can recognize this one with the scratch on the top near the bridge from where a DeArmond control box would stand. The seller told me that no fretwork was to expect but the frets are dead, creating some waves (not canions) so even if they don't look dead at first sight, they totally are and i get buzzes, especially on the low e and on the G string in the middle part of the neck, so we'll be able to properly judge what the guitar has in the belly only after the refret. I still think it has a great potential, combining deep and inspiring tone, and the characteristics from it's advanced features AKA short scale , X braced.

The guitar is strung with Ernie Ball nickel round strings gauge 12-53 (with a wound G instead of the plain one that comes with the set), i'm playing a Dunlop 0.71mm gator pick and the sound is captured by both a AEA R84A active ribbon microphone and a Neumann TLM 103.

I’ve decided to sell part of my guitar collection, so if you’re looking for one this might be the moment. All the infos and pics and price and videos on https://www.jazzguitar.be/forum/sale/...
