I knew Jimmy and I know his guitars and his tone. You can't miss it when you guys play; it's all there. For those who want to find the D'Aquisto tone, look up Tone Poems II (My Romance on youtube) and listen to Martin Taylor play a real D';Aquisto. Same smooth soft pretty tone. Thanks.
Thank you for your kind comments. You are fortunate to have known Jimmy. I wasn't blessed with the opportunity to know Jimmy, but I love his instruments. And you're absolutely right about the smooth, bell-like tone of his remarkable instruments.
Hey, Tim. It's a 1981 New Yorker Special listed as a "Jim Hall" in Jimmy's ledgers. The guitar is unique in that the rims are 2 3/4" rather than the typical 3" rims. Also Jimmy sprayed over the binding, which Jim Hall preferred. Supposedly this guitar was initially built for Jim Hall, but at some point during the build Jim decided he wanted something else.
You are my favorite RU-vid guitarist!! Your playing, tone and feel are so amazing!!!! Thank you for sharing your talent with us. Do you ever get to Michigan to do a show?
Howard Robert’s developed a practice regimen to enhance technique as well as musical proficiency. It’s a tune-based program that lasts 20 weeks. Definitely worth checking out.
That rig... pulsonic g12m's and something else.. ceramic but not sure. vintage tubes in that vintage plexi. i would boost the top end personally but it is definitely the burst/marshall purist rig.
Hey, Kamlapati! Nice to hear from you. I hope all is well. Do you ever pop on the JGF anymore? There's a great thread about one of Bryant's latest guitars called the Georgian. Take care!
