Great video. I wish all of your videos would be this length. 20 minutes is too long.

Great playing and break down! Thanks brother!

Glad to run into this video Ted. I used to come listen to your set at that little brunch place next to the Afterthought in Little Rock when I was a wee kid. I recall you advising me to dive into 7-string playing ("what do you have to lose?") and now 20 years later here I am fumbling my way through Pannonica on my 7 out here in LA. Good to hear your sounds again.

Love this guitar. Remarkable, particularly the balanced sound of the 7th string. Thanks for sharing this.

That’s a great guitar, Ted, and you sound great on it! Thank you for sharing!

Thanks a lot for this review. Seems an excellent guitar. I'm searching since a long time for a decent 7 string with a 24.8 inch scale length (7th string only tuned to D, so feasible) and a sufficiently wide neck to allow fingerpicking. Unfortunately, Tom lives in the US. I suppose he has no dealers in Europe. Importing it myself is costly and risky. Do you know a good luthier in Europe that does similar work?

Testadora = Hardhead/Stubborn

Gorgeous guitar! And the figuring on that thing is insane 😳 I just don’t understand how full time players can afford these guitars?!

Beautiful tone & Beautiful axe 👍

Some sounds I could hear all day. This instrument & player is one.

wow

Beautiful guitar! As always your playing is superb!

Sounds gorgeous Ted

Love your work on Turefire Ted! Now I need go to listening your recordings! Hope I can see you play live somewhere in the future!

Love your style Ted, wondered if you’re thinking of doing anymore lessons?

Gorgeous instrument and sound!

Great sounding guitar, Ted. Reminds me of John Pizzarelli

What pickup is it?

What a performance! So glad you captured it.

Sounds great but I personally would like to see more videos from one of the best, thanks Ted.

Hell Yeah! 🔥🔥

A guitar by an amazing luthier in the hands of an amazing player.

Beautiful guitar, gorgeous tone

Sounds great Ted! (The guitar too 😉)

Yo Ted

Killer Ted!..... and the Wilkie sounds awesome. I need to investigate Wilkie in depth now~ Thanks for sharing!

🙌

Mr. Ludwig - What brand and type of strings do you prefer on your archtops? I looked but can't find any info in your videos.

Ted just wanted to say that I’ve bought a few of your Truefire courses, I’m relatively new to trying to play jazz on the guitar, I must say your style blows me away, it’s so fresh sounding, I’m really happy to find your channel, thanks for the tips and tricks

Ted is always smoking . He’s just getting warm up. lol 😂

What kind of pick up is on the guitar? Is it a set in pickup or a floating pickup?

Hi Ted, great video. When you started learning different songs like Miles Davis, did you learn them from sheet music, or by ear? And is that the best way to work out the harmony of a song, working it out by ear?

❤❤

One of the finest guitarists period!!!

Wow, your playing is terrific! You have a new sub in me, buddy.

Excellent lesson on separation. I was noticing this for quite some time while wondering why I didn't sound as good as some great guitar players I know. Loved your take on this.

Blessed ❤

Thanks again, Ted! You are a great guitar player/musician and your lessons are (like this one) absolutely fantastic.

very juicy lines, Ted. I''m going to school on this.

yeah but no one can afford a Manzer, Ribbeck guitars maybe they are 20 grand as entry level. good players gets them for reduced price or give away etc. so they are out of question!!!

Hi Ted, As of now, I am the proud owner of 4 of your videos. Yes, sir, I am so excited. Look out, world , I'm on my way. Ted ludwig is one of the greatest jazz guitarists out there.

Made me smile 😁

Hi Ted. I brought both of your instructions videos from true fire. Your playing speaks for it self. Hey world Ted Ludwig is one of the greatest jazz guitar players out their. This guy is a beast. Blessings 🙌

Good luck for the performance.

Fantastic

The man. Pure and simple. ❤

Great tune and great playing!

We’re actually friends on Facebook and wanted to mention that your playing is incredible…..fantastic lines and technique. I’m 77 and been playing professionally since 1964 but it hasn’t always been guitar. In the 60’s I played trumpet in R’n’B groups and there was a period of 13 years when I played only piano in a 950 seat dinner theater but the past few years I’ve just been sight reading guitar parts in the orchestra pit doing Broadway musicals. It’s great that you’re able to make a living playing jazz…..and you definitely deserve it and earned it.

7 string jazz guitar???

Great stuff and gorgeous guitar!
