  1. I'm actually a fan of shows like The Masked Singer , Alter Ego , and I Can See Your Voice . Looking at the video in the opening post it is obvious there is a vibrant dynamic market for enhanced hybrid musical performances that utilize computer generated cutting edge AI performance enhancements .... In 2021 there was a show that ran for one season called Alter Ego .This show took singers and gave them a platform to enhance every aspect of their musical talent and abilities while giving them the ability to create an unlimited Avatar / Hologram enhanced performer of them self's performing on stage . All performances were done in real time in a live setting utilizing a real band ... I really enjoyed this show ...The performers were backstage singing and dancing wearing performance suit that took all their biological information /every aspect from facial nuances to outright physical like dancing and movements in real time while their enhanced Avatar was up front on stage performing with the house band live with all those moves and nuances ... If you watch the video you will see many of the performers were no longer held back with their physical limitations ...Short people became tall Avatars , Overweight performers were fit and trim Avatars , Homely looking people had cute and handsome Avatars , Nerdy people were hip, ect ect... One thing I found interesting was every performer had something about themself s they were able to overcome by becoming the Avatar they had created ... Here is the reveal Video from season one ....I'm sad they didn't have a season two ... I also dig the masked singer ....I know a lot of people tend to snub these type of shows ....I'm not one of them ... The singer under that costume is LeAnn Rimes . She won the title of the Masked Singer Champion Season 4 in 2020 Kenny
  2. Sheen's called in sick today at the catering business . I will be taking over his shift ? Kenny
  3. Good Luck on that one . It's every man for himself ? that's all I got to say today on my 67th birth day Kenny
  4. Hey Bitflipper ! I don't know if we will ever meetup and be friends in real life . Regardless of whether that happens or not , you still happen to be the one guy on this forum I would love to hang out with and smoke a joint with ? Kenny
  5. Well there you have it folks . People are gonna hear music on the level of what they want to see . If it looks awesome ! the music must be awesome ! Kenny
  6. Some people have their bridges pinned ..other folks have just glued a small strip of emery sand paper on the bridges lower section facing the top .to keep it from sliding . Most of the time on Jazz Box's I use medium gauge strings , that helps keep things in place ..another thing is I like to set my intonation and ones its as perfect as I can get it I will use a sharpie and trace a few sections of the bridge on the guitars top . This way I can always set it back to where it had good intonation ... all the best , Kenny
  7. Thank you Rain ! I agree with you she is a good looking guitar . The bridge is actually perfect the way it is set up . What you are seeing is the quality of my photo's ..they are marginal at best ...Currently the only means of photography I have over here is my android phone . Also I have a need for better lighting and a true camera . The CC in my ES stands for the Charlie Christian pick up . Charlie Christian is generally acknowledged and credited as being one of the the first truly electric guitar player that played electrified leads and melodic guitar parts .We are talking a long time ago when he was with Benny Goodman . Before Charlie everyone was just playing banjo's and arch-top guitars non amplified on the band stand ... Here's a article on some of his history https://www.guitarplayer.com/gear/listen-to-jazz-innovator-charlie-christian-bringing-electric-guitar-to-the-forefront-of-music For those that just want a quick pic here is a picture of Charlie and one of his guitars a Gibson ES 150 . Notice the 3 screws , that is how the Charlie Christian pick up is mounted to the guitars top . The pick up itself is very beefy construction wise and the CC pickup has a tone that no other guitar pick up has ...the tone itself is unmistakable ... My guitar is basically Gibson Guitars way of tipping it's hat to Charlie Christian by talking an ES 175 and adding the single CC pick up. The most modern thing about my guitar compared to Charlies guitar is his was a non cutaway guitar , mine has a Florentine Cutaway. Most authorities on Gibson Guitars say there were only 479 ES175 CC's made as an accurate account of their numbers ...they are very rare .. The production run lasted only a little over two years . Lets put that into perspective ...imagine only 500 1958 / 1960 Les Paul's made instead of the thousands of cherry sunbursts Gibson made ...What about only 500 Strats ? ? Any way I feel very Lucky to have gotten this guitar . I have wanted an ES 175 CC for over 37 years ... all the best, Kenny
  8. On Thursday I will be another year older . Since I'm reeling in the years I'm giving up on playing underage guitars that want to chew bubble gum and just look good ? I need a guitar that can handle it's biznezz when the chord changes hit the fan .Plus I want my guitar to inspire me and sound good for the kind of music I enjoy playing ... I bought this late 70's Gibson ES 175 CC Today . The ES 175 CC model is pretty Rare . If I'm not mistaken there was only 479 of them made . I have always wanted one of these ES 175 's since the days of when I worked at a very well known N.Y.C. music store ... Today was the day it finally happened . excuse the blurry pics , Kenny
  9. What ! my woman ain't good enough for you ? ? I do enjoy a good song that tells that type of story . In real life I don't mess around Here's another blues tune with a very unique lyrical message ... Kenny
  10. Wow ! theres like 20 of them geetars I want now Kenny
  11. Wow ! Your New Tele is stunning . I read up on it and watched a few videos ....Yeah ! It has great specs and it is super nice . Congratulations on your new guitar !...that's the good news .. The bad news is I got my BD coming up this week , Ive been wanting to get something for myself and you ain't helping the situation ? Kenny
  12. You have read all the positive thinking books you could find on"How to achieve success !" Here's what these books don't tell you ? The school for Cakewalk Moderation not only holds it's moderators to a strict code of excellence . We also take our posting guidelines criteria quite seriously . Kenny
  13. SHHH...! Lets keep that our little secret ! Kenny
  14. I like the slower thing he did . The 4 , the 8 , and the 16 notes per second speeds . When he got to 32 notes per second section of the video my Bawls woke up and asked me to learn how to do that and to start scratching ? Not sure what type of bass he is playing ...could be what you mentioned . Kenny
  15. Do you happen to know who's in that top picture ? ?‍♂️ Here's a little hint . Bapu is his dad .? Kenny
  16. They might not be all that smart .They are worth Millions ...are you ? Kenny
  17. What do you think fellas , if he took that thing off his face he could be one of us . Yeah OK ! I'm down with that ! He looks kinda like me don't he ? Kenny
  18. Tall order ? Maybe so . A Minor chords like to lie about their age by knocking off the years once they are old enough to no longer be considered as youthful as they once were . When A Minor's get much older , they also like to add Titles & Alias's to bolster up their name and sound ...A minor this ....A Minor that ... These days , it's getting harder and harder to tell who is really a natural A minor ...Sort of reminds me of all the choices out there for women's hair color products .... When in doubt always check to hear if the A Minors North matches the A Minors South ? Kenny
  19. The twuth is my old hearing aide works grate for Mono listening . Still it may be a good time to let go of the old technology and get a new pair . Kenny
  20. Dang ...I forgot what we were talking about . My little head is so small my brain can't breath . Does anyone around here know the rest of the joke and the punch line ? Kenny
  21. That looks Bass Yummy ? Happy new Bass Day . Kenny
