Best blues guitar for the “moving up”/intermediate guitarist ...
Hey guys, I’ve been playing guitar for a while now, and for quite a time I’ve delved myself into the smooth world of blues: scales, riffs, melodies, and the like. After a great session just a while ago, I have come to the conclusion that blues is what I really do enjoy playing, it is something musical that comes quite naturally to me. I’ve seen some great work done with blues on many different guitars. For example, fender telecasters, gibson/epiphone les pauls/SG’s, and the classic stratocaster (or it’s many copies even). There are indeed many options, it might be a while before I decide.
So, people, experienced guitarists, what what you recommend based on experience? If you can, details. Humbuckers > Single Coils? Or the other way around? Fat Strat < Gibson ’70’s?
I can agree on the ES 335. That guitar is sweet.
What style of blues are you looking to play? If you wanted to play some old 30’s blues, you’d probably want an acoustic. If you want to play some 50’s style blues like T-Bone Walker or Lowell Fulson, you’d probably want some kind of jumbo hollow body guitar. If you want to play electric blues rock from the 60’s, you might want something with humbuckers, like a Gibson Les Paul or an SG.

State Censures Sleepy Hollow Parking Authority
SLEEPY HOLLOW, N.Y. – The New York State Authorities Budget Office has censured the Sleepy Hollow Parking Authority after it failed to comply with public disclosure, reporting and corporate governance provisions of the Public Authorities Law.
The governmental body is responsible for parking within the village and accounts for approximately $200,000 of the village's budget.
In a letter dated March 5, Director David Kidera notes the parking authority's “persistent failure to meet the reporting requirements” of the law. According to the letter, the parking authority has not filed annual audit reports for the fiscal years ending May 31, 2010 and May 31, 2011.
“As a public authority, the Sleepy Hollow Parking Authority is expected to be timely and transparent with its financial reporting and to be accountable to the public,” the letter reads. “This letter of censure is the result of your collective failure to take appropriate corrective action when the authority was previously warned that it was out of compliance with state law.”
