Wrist fracture
It looks like I'll be hands off the guitar for a while, probably several weeks at least. I got a non-displacement fracture in my left wrist this Wednesday at Gabriel's workshop. How? I was putting my guitar strap around my neck and did something funky with the wrist, I think it was extreme inward flexion and the bone just snapped. It really stinks because I was getting some momentum going with these shell etudes and really enjoying playing my new blinged out Ibanez Guitar. The upside is that I think I may have caught onto an osteoporosis condition and can take steps toward correcting it now rather than later.

Mercy, Mercy, Mercy
A great soul jazz piece written by Joe Zawinul in 1966 for Cannonball Adderley. I've wanted to learn this tune since I watched Peppino D'Agostino and Nora Francesca Germain play it together at the Martin Taylor Guitar Retreat in Atrani, Italy in 2015. Over 10 years later I finally started working on it (just a few weeks ago), with the aid of a tutorial from Peppino. https://youtu.be/Yx1Fo-c5D2E

Are you using a DI with the Anthem that you like? I have the Anthem in a D18 and J45 -- i actually bought the guitars because of the system.

@Mentor Miles Barel Thanks
Summertime CM
Super fun to learn and may be the easiest tune in Essentials (IMO). It’s fun bc Nathan snuck in Jimmy Paige “Stairway to Heaven” intro as the outro. When I was learning it my wife said “hey that’s not right” referring to the ending. So I modified the outro slightly to finish that Iconic phrase. Happy to say this is No. 7 tune learned in JGA so far. Thank you all for your advice- I do want to learn to play jazz! https://youtu.be/w6SZe5_yCWA?feature=shared

It looks like an Ovation headstock, but I've never seen one before. He was an Ovation endorsed artist, but I wonder how original the guitar was. He always had the rep of being a monster player but he didn't let it loose often.

Looking to learn jazz guitar. I come from a rock blues background and want to expand my vocabulary.
