Sage Wisdom

"Good improvisation communicates harmonic progression melodically. Effective melodies manipulate harmonic content through the use of guide tones and preparatory gravity notes, masterfully woven in systematic tension, release, and transparent harmonic definition."

June 20, 2007 | Mowry on the truck

One of our favorite messages, "On FedEx vehicle for delivery" and with the latest from Andrew Mowry, we're looking forward to some hands-on experience with the rising star builder's jazz two-point later this morning. Making the trek from Oregon for official JazzMando staff review in our favorite cosmetic combination, blonde stain with tortoise trim (goes together like blonde hair and black leather), Andrew has paid special attention to the needs of jazzers in this beauty; "I try to voice the two-point a little more for jazz than bluegrass, and part of that just comes from the wood choice (engelmann and bigleaf maple). I'm a big fan of engelmann, and I recommend it to my customers unless they're going purely for that bluegrass sound.

We're having this shipped to the "day gig" address. Feeling a little cough coming on; better take the rest off after it comes in.
