Default Good post Carlos

But...

Dude I dig the way you play, and the way PC, La Faro, Wilbur and gazillion other great jazzers play. I gave guts a solid go for a while as well, but as weird as it may sound, it wasn't the tone I was looking for after all. Just a thought, but I think at some point I realized that I wanted my own tone, garnered from the inspiration of players from the past, but ultimately looking into the future with the most modern innovations in the instruments technology possible. I look to Rufus for this sort of artistic, forward thinking view. New stuff is out there. Please take no offense, your playing KILLS and I'm not insinuating you have a myopic view of strings, technique, etc. Just adding my .02.



All that being said, I did copy down those string guages for further experimentation, much to the chagrin of my fiancee and pocketbook.

Keep swingin' Brother Carlos, I'll keep listening!

P.S. Tell Printup Kris from Austin says "Hello"
