"Chorded Solos Workbook", for jazz guitar. An excellent jazz guitar resource: a collection of prearranged ‘improvisations’, written in chordal fashion for guitar.
The book contains Wes-style chorded solos for the following tunes: Ceora, Days of Wine and Roses, Dexter's Textures (G Blues), Confirmation, and Bb Rhythm Changes.
The workbook provides examples - over complete songs - of Wes-style chord improvisations in an easy to read/understand format. You do not have to be able to read music to navigate this book....all chord voicings are written above the melody line in diagram form. This is not a traditional book of "chord solos" to be played by a solitary guitarist, but is rather a collection of "chorded solos" intended for combo format, in the Wes style. more information »

Offered by IslandFunhouse Vintage Guitars + Parts 401 419 0621
1996 Bill Comins Chester Avenue Archtop. This is Comins flagship guitar...this one was custom-ordered with a wide-flat (1962 Gibson style) neck and in the 16 inch size. L-5 scale length....25 inches. Sunburst finish.....Benedetto custom neck pickup.....flat dead mint with no play wear.....extravagant hand inlay work throughout.....ebony truss rod cover with inlay.......9 piece maple neck.......heavy flame on the back.....tight-grain choice solid hand-carved spruce top....ebony pickguard with controls on board.....Schaller tuners with ebony buttons.
This guitar is currently owned by Scot Buffington, the CEO of Evans Amplifiers. Bill made the guitar for Scot to use as a show piece at guitar and amp shows. The guitar has no play wear and is in PERFECT as-new condition....I cannot find a mark on it. It plays absolutely perfectly all the way up with super close action.
Recently set-up by Bill, who added a new innovation -- his new string holding system that is metal, mounted underneath the ebony fingerboard...this gives you the appearance of an ebony tailpiece with the sound of a metal Gibson tailpiece.
Case is original to the guitar and is a 5 ply HarpTone case....very heavy.......the case shows just a little edge wear from storage but is in great shape.....remember though, the guitar is flat dead mint with NO play wear!
This guitar is as close to perfection as you will find while walking on planet Earth. Serious jazz artists and discriminating collectors will be thrilled with this one.

This is a new Gibson reissue case handle. Beautiful construction and a perfect replacement for your tan 1950's through 1960's Gibson, Geib, Stone, and Lifton cases.
Excellent craftsmanship: This handle is constructed just like the original, with a solid metal frame and genuine leather wrap.
2 Ways to install:
1. Use the pre-existing hardware on your case...the handle is an exact fit. Comes with two axles which will give you a pro installation look. Axles are installed by ball-peining one end to create a 'burr'...this is how they are installed at the factory.
OR.......2. Use the hardware provided that is an exact replacement for many of the brown 50's cases. The new handle hardware is made permanent to the handle by tapping the axle into the clip, making it flush with the post. Also comes with two metal plates that go inside the case for greater stability. Excellent and stable system will last a lifetime.
Really nice piece to restore your case for that PAF guitar or 1940's archtop case....es-335, SG, Barney Kessel, Super 400, Byrdland, L5, 330, et al. ...or use it on your trumpet, violin, trombone cases!
