    NGD - Taylor K24ce

    Mike- Congratulations on the new Taylor Koa. A Beauty! I picked up and played several Taylor Koa's at Gruhn Guitars. I have always appreciated the wood coloring and grain. Koa is a beautiful wood! I enjoyed a very well rounded mellow & balanced sound from the ones I played. My Martin HD-35 is loud and booms; my Taylor 614CE is great with a little more clarity as some describe as jangly! The Koa is a guitar I would buy if I wanted to pull the trigger on a new guitar! Enjoy and let us know how you like it after playing for a suitable time frame!

    The One Man Band- Reinhardt Buhr

    I am always looking around for music and artist that catch my ear and make me stop and listen. Not just listen, but really hear, feel and be moved by their music and talent.

    I came across such an artist today- Reinhardt Buhr. I know that his music is not for everyone, but I was so impressed by his musicality, expression, composition, timing, obvious instrument playing music talent (instrument choices) as well as his ability to improvise,  play, sing, record, loop all while improvising and entertaining live! The music may or may not be your taste and style, but just watch the video and see what is going on and hear the beauty of the composer and what is coming from his heart and soul. Beautiful! IMHO:)

    Take Care,

    Mike

    Mandy- I am so sorry for your loss. No words can express enough comfort. I can only say that I have lost loved ones and it hurts so bad. Know that your Guitar family grieves with you and for you. My grandmother always told me, "to feel pain is to know you are alive"! I know in your heart and soul, you have so many great memories to travel with you and keep you company!

    When you arrive at a place & time in this season, remember, "that without music, life would be a mistake! (I'm not sure who said this, but I wrote it down sometime during my guitar life). Reach out, we are here for you!

    Thoughts and prayers are with you.

    Mike

    One of my favorite players has passed away, Mr. Jerry Jeff Walker. I was privileged to see you play in a small venue in S.F. back in the 70's and it was so much fun. Mr. Bojangles was one of the first five songs I learned on the guitar. I will miss your life here on earth, but your presence will always be with us in memories and music.

    Thank you!

    R.I.P. Mr. Bojangles!

    Modes

    Thank you Triple-o...........I enjoyed the presentation off the modes staying in C as he started with the major and went through each modal change. Seeing him tie in the major triad with each model scale and movable scale shape up and down the neck helped glue this all together for me.

    Thanks
