Hello concert guitar lovers, there is hope!

Concert guitar. According to Bernd C. Hoffmann on January 20, 2023

Hello friends of blues music:
Blues Art Radio - a chat room where blues music plays.
ATTENTION BE CAREFUL, THE TRANSMITTER SCANS YOUR IP ADDRESSES!
Of course, what they do with it remains their secret.
Listeners via IP are not wanted by the moderators.
Says the Friday presenter every week, Martina A. (Toni)
Two weeks later, this same presenter took over
sorry, verbally attacked the listeners over IP again.
Clear case of “red card”
Mr. Franz Seidemann (Mulehead), the operator of the station, introduces himself
clueless and attempts to violate the GDPR of EU law,
belittling people with embarrassingly stupid jokes.
He doesn't even know what his own terms and conditions say.
Dear readers, you know that we at MukerBude won't let something like this go...
The entire recording, spoken and written, is available to MukerBude and can be requested.
If you are looking for a blues station with quality:
No IP scanning, no interruptions and no insults!

BÖSENDORFER
Since 1828 - Made by hand and finished with heart - History
World-renowned pianists refer to Bösendorfer pianos as the ROLLS-ROYCE of concert grand pianos.

We wonder why such a mature grand piano sound, is predominantly used in jazz?

KEYBOARDS and E-PIANOS
After the extensive keyboard research in 22/23,
we are currently playing two master keyboards in the MukerBude.
M-AUDIO 61 MK3
With 61 precise semi-weighted keys, for a nylon guitarist
like me, just the right board! Of course I play the KAWAI
GS-60 Estate Grand LE by Production Voice.
Of course, this board is also available with 88 keys.
PartyKnowledge:
In classical music, there are only three composers who perform piano pieces
for more than 61 keys !
:
M-AUDIO Hammer 88
For our pianist, whose seemingly outdated electric piano after 16 years
has started to refuse to work some buttons.
Verdict of the repair expert: "Total economic loss."
"After 16 years of playing by a trained pianist,
is an upper-class digital piano supposed to have been played too scrap ?"
Whoever believes it ... also knows Santa Claus.
Instead of a repair that brought the once high-quality electric piano up to the standard in terms of sound.
of the noughties, we have decided, for much less money,
than the cost of repairing a MIDI keyboard with the sound variety of all piano samples
of the world.
Now the collage plays an M-Audio Hammer 88, with which all of us - especially him -
preferred sound of the KAWAI GS-60 sample from Producion Voice.
His verdict, after two months of playing the M-Audio:
"Plays quite well and sounds really decent :-)"

KEYBOARDS and E-PIANOS
After the extensive keyboard research in 22/23,
we are currently playing two master keyboards in the MukerBude.
M-AUDIO 61 MK3
With 61 precise semi-weighted keys, for a nylon guitarist
like me, just the right board! Of course I play the KAWAI
GS-60 Estate Grand LE by Production Voice.
Of course, this board is also available with 88 keys.
PartyKnowledge:
In classical music, there are only three composers who perform piano pieces
for more than 61 keys !
:
M-AUDIO Hammer 88
For our pianist, whose seemingly outdated electric piano after 16 years
has started to refuse to work some buttons.
Verdict of the repair expert: "Total economic loss."
"After 16 years of playing by a trained pianist,
is an upper-class digital piano supposed to have been played too scrap ?"
Whoever believes it ... also knows Santa Claus.
Instead of a repair that brought the once high-quality electric piano up to the standard in terms of sound.
of the noughties, we have decided, for much less money,
than the cost of repairing a MIDI keyboard with the sound variety of all piano samples
of the world.
Now the collage plays an M-Audio Hammer 88, with which all of us - especially him -
preferred sound of the KAWAI GS-60 sample from Producion Voice.
His verdict, after two months of playing the M-Audio:
"Plays quite well and sounds really decent :-)"
