This amazing rosewood Telecaseter is just like the one George played on the roof of the Apple headquarters during the last live Beatles appearance. It’s a symbol of one of the most iconic moments in rock n’ roll history. It features a solid rosewood body sandwiched between a two-piece lamination. The neck is also solid rosewood and features a maple plug in back for truss rod installation. It’s capped off with an original poly finish.

Blackstar Debut Bass 25 Review

The bedroom or the garage: In a game of Family Feud, those humble locations would likely be the top answers for the question “Where do music careers begin?’ I was relegated to the latter for the sake of my parents’ sanity. But nothing stops a career cold like a garage in winter, so an amp that ensures you can sound good while sharing tight quarters is a truly valuable thing. Blackstar Amplification’s Debut Bass 25 fits that bill.

All About Guide Tones

Do you feel like your solos lack focus or that there isn’t any underlying structure to your lines? Does it seem that you are wandering around the neck, hoping that what you are playing “looks like it sounds cool”? Would pushing peas around a dinner plate with a knife be more riveting than the last lick you played? If any of these statements are true, then you need some guide tones, my friend.
