Location: Chicago | I put my 1581 to work today on Goodbye Pork Pie Hat --a tune Mingus wrote to lament and celebrate Lester Young. I've always loved these changes; they seem to be loaded with a "blue force"! Does anyone else here play a version? |

Location: Newington, CT | Greg: you have an exquisite touch, a great feel for the music, and your smooth, almost languid transitions, along with silky tasteful lead runs, weave a mood of melancholy loneliness and loss. Great job on this great song. |

| Always a favourite. Beautifully played - you only need Jonas Hellborg to give The Man a run for his money! |

Beautiful version of it Greg!
Thanks for posting. Maybe I'll start to learn it again. |

Location: Chicago | I really appreciate the feedback, it means a lot to me! Always glad to share the arrangement or info about the tune (I found a few chords to sub here and there). I used a Zoom H4... |

Location: Flahdaw | Greg, what did you play that on? Any effects (sounds like a little reverb, touch of chorus?)
Very NICE! |

Location: Chicago | Thanks DB! I've come up with an easy point-and-click "circle of sound": I plug my Adamas 1581-5 into a little Fishman Loudbox and point the stereo mics of my Zoom H4, one at the Fishman, the other at the guitar. I had the amp on low with a little reverb, yes, no chorus. |

Location: Chicago | Such nice folks! I continue to marvel at the little ZOOM H4: two batteries, tiny-fixed mics, but if you do it right you get good sound. I recorded the snippet yesterday to a data-rich WAV format and you should hear the CD played through a decent system! Sounds like the studio. All from a point-click cigarette-box with built-in mics! |
