I can recognize that this guitar was handcarved and man-made even though I didn’t see it happen. How is it that this crowd of immoral liberal minded people cannot recognize the fingerprints of God who marvelously created them?

Nice! I also have a super 400c from the 60s. At the moment it’s equipped with a double McCarty pickguard, but I would like to change it to a normal floating pickguard. Cool to hear your experience with this.

Great tone. That pickup is special

Great recommendation from a great player who knows his stuff. In case anyone's interested, here's a sample of what mine sounds like in a recording with a backing track: ruclips.net/video/lAOE9YWwnDI/видео.html

Superbe performance, et quel son !...👍

Sonny Rollins knew how to swing, these guys are a bore. Sonny's Oleo ruclips.net/video/cdJSQF3AzX8/видео.htmlsi=aPRR-jEqNK-3EzyB

Beautiful stuff my friend. Thanks. 🙏

DUDE………….

Lovely music - great guitar tone though. Wonderful.

Toujours un immense plaisir de venir ici vous écouter ! Un sublime morceau et une magnifique interprétation, bravo et merci à vous

I had a couple of those. Most have a solid top and can be very lively. I knew a jazz pro who used one as his #1 for performance.

Epiphone Emperor F. I might be selling mine however

Thanks for posting. I'm lucky enough to have one of these. Bought it from a guy who has a whole selection of L5s, L4s, Heritage Golden Eagles and whatnot. It has a Seymour Duncan Phat Cat pickup and sounds amazing, very open and natural as opposed to nasal.

Please tell me who produced the CC floating pickup ? I am entirely interested Looking forward to your reply Best regards from the Netherlands

Excellent ,great speaker cab design and sound , I love your Super-400 , the Charley Christian pickup is smooth... Thanks for sharing !

What a guitar... 💙

Hey Oliver, great playing!

Great tones , smooth stuff !

Sounds great - superb playing as always!

Quel bonheur de vous revoir !...

Beautiful playing and L5!

Beautiful amp!!!

What a beast. I've always hankered after a hollow body, being a John McLaughlin AND Beatles fan. The closest I got was a walnut Encore 335 which was stunning and great to play AND I got change out of a hundred quid. I'm thinking Gretsch, something that can twang and also do warm and woody. I haven't exposed myself to enough jazz to know and understand the theory, even though I've been playing 40 years, I've been listening to McLaughlin the last 20 or so..and during that time a rather nasty uh "jazz" habit (beginning with H) robbed me of a lot of the intensity and focus to evolve on the guitar (in fact I barely picked it up in 10 years and was extremely disconcerted when I did return to it, how alien it felt in my hands, a lot worse than simply being a little rusty). Fortunately, a few years prior to addiction, I benefitted from a good few years frequent jamming with two advanced musicians who encouraged me to find my "wings of improvisation" and for the first time discovered higher states where music is allowed to flow freely for extended periods of time/timelessness (wink wink). So, after the wasted years, I at least knew that it was just as much state of mind as good old finger practise that would return me to where I wanted to be in terms of musical expression. And I still love good music...John McLaughlin, Tony Williams Lifetime, Mahavishnu Orchestra...pretty much John McLaughlin lol. And The Beatles of course. And a whole list of other stuff but those are the top two. Just like Indian classical...I know how to make an Indian "noise" and how to make a jazz "noise" but don't know the theory at all. It's almost like pantomime dressing up. However, I do know it when I pick up a guitar I love. Or hear one in another's hands. There's something about the spaciousness and responsiveness of a hollow body I find very appealing. The neck pickup on your guitar is a dream, with that little bit of overdrive. What a surprise though when you switched to bridge. No twang whatsoever! Just a subtle shift in voice, a slightly different kind of "attitude". I checked out another of your vids...another Gibson, the one with the specially designed C Christian type pup made to fit in a narrow space. What a beautiful airy kind of articulate clarity, and going through those amazing looking amps. If that Gibson Super 400 puts you in the blessed space, then that's a keeper! I picked up a Martin years ago in a music shop (to try not buy, cannot yet afford) that swept me away for a good hour. I've been playing cheap instruments for 40 years. It doesn't matter TOO much with the electric, but with acoustic guitar...comes a time when cheap instruments seriously hold a musician back, and you need something that will respond to the nuances of energy and feeling you put in. Playing cheap acoustic guitars is like trying to hold an intelligent passionate conversation with someone who simply lifts up his leg and farts in reply. Blessings from the UK x

Awesome playing and great demo. Would you comment on whether the pickups could achieve an early Scotty Moore (Elvis) tone?

Love that sound !!

Very nice amp! Very cool playing too. The amp sounds great especially with the guitar, and the guitar player. Nice.

Wow, that guitar & amp combo have that classic sound. Thanks for sharing this great project. Great playing

I have one and I absolutely love it. And it doesn’t squeak or feedback at higher volumes like a lot of other hollow bodies do. The hollow body does give it a great sustain on the edge of feeding back but is always manageable.

Hi, very nice playing, I like it. And it seems to be an interesting idea to play through two different amps in parallel. Could you please share your opinion on these two amps? To be more specific, on Fender GB Hot Rod Deluxe vs. Fender Tone Master Deluxe Reverb. I play archtop jazz guitar, looking for traditional mellow sound. Which one would you recommend? Amp power and its weight is not an issue. Thanks, Peter

Now am so glad that I am putting the same pickup in my jazz box....beautiful playing

That is an awesome concept! Great playing and great to see the figures on the guitare and the amp! Thanks for sharing that! Love also that scofield tune!

That was CRAZY!!! I was just curious to see another 345, cuz I was just getting ready to place an order for one, I don't have it yet but, I've been looking forward to having one for a while. But your playing was just crazy good! You know a lot of times I feel that it really should just be about the guitar and not people showing off, but I couldn't help but listen to what you were playing and the more I listened the more awesome it was!! I'm actually a bass player who just started playing the sixth string electric, I've been playing an acoustic for a few years and getting pretty good at it. But what really got me is, your melodic structures for every little portion, every little section of the solo had its own melody or riff. Just the way i hear it in my head, but I can't play thet well, yet. Just love you're style!

Great playing!! I have one of these too. Here's a video of me playing it (slowly): ruclips.net/video/8gSpnJukzkA/видео.html

Love your playing.Sax player as well. If you've got any recordings for sale, please let me know..

It's been a while since I've listened-forgot about the fantastic tone & playing! Also, really appreciate the settings & gear info!

Wow

Great sound & playing as always Oliver!

Top!👍

Toujours un énorme plaisir de vous écouter !

Sweet Oliver!

Yeah, nice! Makes me miss my blond '61 ES-350. I did just buy an Echolution V1 though! Should be fun!

hmmm. maybe i won't sell mine after all...that Seymour sounds excellent on that guitar...it's a bit heavy for me, but still may be a keeper...nice playing...there is a story to your solo, not just a collection hot licks...

Great playing. I hope to find my dream es345 at your store.

Nice!

I love your tone! I just ordered a byrdland in wine red! Can’t wait. Do you still play live? I wish I could see this jam

Great demo. I own a 79 RVT as well...its my prized possession. What is the cabinet you have under yours?

FANTASTIC! From Gainesville, Florida.

Killer playing!

Sounds like John Scofield.

nice amp
