DeVeeWee Posted June 21, 2010 Share Posted June 21, 2010 No guys! No guitar pics, ... but only magnificent guitar playing by Philip Catherine and Bireli Lagrène, two jazz guitar legends ... playing "Autumn leaves"! I hope some jazz guitar now and than, won't hurt ... [YOUTUBE]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YCRUkd4EocY&feature=player_embedded[/YOUTUBE] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pippy Posted June 21, 2010 Share Posted June 21, 2010 That was lovely, DeVeeWee! I especially loved the cross-play around about 3:40. I'm going off to practice some chords... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

L5Larry Posted June 22, 2010 Share Posted June 22, 2010 Great vid, thanks for posting. One of the archtop design questions that come up frequently is the differences between a laminated top and a carved top, or a maple top and a spruce top. Of course, the question is usually asked to find out why an ES-175 MSRP's for $5000, and an L-5 MSRP's for $14,000, but that's a long technical design/build answer. The only thing most people are going to really understand is the differences in sound. This video pretty much says it all, listen to the sonic differences between the ES-175 (heat-pressed laminated maple top) and the LeGrande (handcarved spruce top), Of course there are other variables working here such as the 175 has top mounted humbuckers and the LeGrande has a pickguard mounted floating pickup, and we don't know the amps or settings.... but in a nutshell this a very good representation of the difference in sound.

[/quote'] Spot on Larry, thanks for these insights. I know for Philip Catherine there are a couple of variables that play as well (he uses a pedalboard) but being an ES-175 player myself, I confirm that this ES-175 sound is what you can expect from the laminated top.
