It's a long way - Frank Sinatra Cover - 1937 Epiphone Broadway
Hey guys, I’ve recorded this standard that I’ve discovered on a Frank Sinatra album long ago, on a 1946 Epiphone Deluxe that has sonic similarities with this Broadway so I thought it would be interesting to compare. I’ll put the other take as a suggestion in the end.
I’m playing a 1937 Epiphone Broadway, rare walnut back and sides model. I’ve decided to sell this guitar so drop me a line to see if it’s still available. The guitar is strung with Martin phosphore bronze Claton strings gauge 12, I’m using a Dunlop gator 0.71mm pick and the sound is captured by both a Neumann TLM 103 and a Bluebird microphone.

I've decided to take a couple of student for online classes so hit me up if you're interested. Contact and info : acousticstandardsinparis@gmail.com
I haven't recorded albums in the style of those acoustic standards, but i have 2 albums on bandcamp with my Django tribute Quartet : romainvuilleminquartet.bandcamp.com
The third one "Three sides of a Coin" is just out, so don't hesitate to drop me an email if you'd like a physical copy, i can ship worldwide !!
We’ve just recorded an album with a lot of these standards with piano, doublebass and drums so make sure to pre-order your copy.
I also have a youtube channel for the Django stuff with my 4tet : ua-cam.com/channels/7z3SS3VcbCNQsk3TMGzoRA.html?view_as=subscriber

    Love this song. Very interesting chord voicings. I played guitar for quite a long time but just got into gypsy jazz, Django Reinhard etc. Learning some tunes now (e.g. Swing 42) and a lot of new jazz chords :) Also looking into acoustic archtops. Your Epiphone Blackstone is quite beautiful and sounds very nice! Do you still have it? If you ever want to sell it I would be interested :)

    Good one! I forgot about that tune. I definitely prefer the 1946 .. rounder sound, less truncated. BTW: if you like early X-braced L-5s, I have a 1936 I'd sell. It's in good shape, with the original case. It's bright and loud, with a somewhat narrow bandwidth.

    • @charsibaba6960
      @charsibaba6960 20 днів тому

      Scale length affects string tension so a difference there as well as different strings being used . Also, in those days every Gibson was slightly different than others of the same model
