>>121439943>it's a poverty amplol of course it is, this is /gg/ after all
>>121439809Does that make it a half diminished chord with extensions or do they still call it minor but with a b5
>>121440090Depends what the chords before and after it are doing.

is there some sort of unwritten agreement between all the guitar pedal reviewers on YouTube that if it's a video about a Wah pedal, they all play the same fucking jag off pick scratching funk riffs?
going to see Steve Vai and Joe Satriani play tonight with my stepdad. He has asked me like literally 3 times in the past to go see them every time they've been in town and I finally said yes to avoid pissing him off. What should I expect? I love Yngwie but I've never listened to these kinds of guys
amp and guitar are irrelevant when you can't SHRED
>>121443142They did a G3 together one year. Yngwie blew them off the stage.
>>121443134You're a mindless NPC, they know you're so retarded that you think you can judge the way a wah sounds by watching a GoySlopTube™ video, your job is to provide them with views and their job is to provide just enough of a friend simulation to keep you on the farm long enough to milk you.Don't get mad at them, you were the one stupid enough to show up to their propeller hat party.
>>121443142Probably a good show. Get a tshirt or you'll regret it later.
>>121443142Who's gonna play the bass though?When I saw Vai he had Billy Sheehan. He does all the tapping and shredding on bass.

I just learned that there is a difference between a speaker cable and an instrument cable, but I'm not sure if I understand it correctlySpeaker cables are only used from a head to a cabinet, right? So if I use a combo, instead of a two-part amp, all my cables should be instrument cables, including the ones between the pedals?
>>121447634Yes speaker cable is only to connect tube head to cabinet

I’m trying my hardest not to buy a Telecaster. I had one years ago and sold it off and miss the Tele sound. I want either sunburst or white. I might be buying a Yamaha Revstar locally because it’s a killer deal and everything I’ve read about Revstars has been overwhelmingly positive.
>>121447978good enough for Worrall good enough for me
>>121448113awww is the pro tools baby feeling threatened? JK your POS chromebook could never run it
>>121448949>I might be buying a Yamaha RevstarP90 or HB version?I would go for the Revstar. You've got a couple Fenders already, frm your pic.
Im curious to see what the anti DAW fag records on, bet its some POS 8 track from Tascam or some Brazilian tier shit. explains why he never posts anything, monkey cant get retard chords onto his 2nd hand chromebook
>>121448834the pain goes away with experience, its part of the ritual of learningno shortcuts no excuses
OH NO NO NO NO NO KIRK BROS IS THIS REALLY THE BEST HE COULD DO? https://youtu.be/8TYhxQNrWQI?si=_0BLln-DoLCygFaE
>>121449165P90 but it’s the old model solid body Revstar and not the newer Revstar IIs, not that much of a difference between the two but $500 a 30 minute drive away for a guitar I’ve been interested in for a few years now seems like a good gamble. I like single coil Fenders a lot. I’ve got two Strats currently (AM Pro II and an old MIM I’ve had for nearly 20 years) and over the years I’ve had and sold another HSS Strat, a Tele, and a MIJ Jazzmaster. I’ve never really liked Les Pauls but the Revstar seems like a decent alternative to one that I might be able to get on with.
What is the minimum I can spend these days to get an actually /good/ guitar?I haven't bought a guitar since 2012 and one thing I noticed while shopping is $1,000 doesn't get you a good guitar anymore.I was shocked to see an Ephiphone selling for $1,300.Is $2,500 the new $1,000?
>>1214496371500 used, 2500 new
>>121449318i'm not going to listen to it. 500 years of metallica is enough.
>>121449647>1500 used
>>121449318>>121449662Uhm guys, I think this is really good. What does that mean? We are still friends right?
>>121449680if you are a broke fuck, your best bet is to watch reverb for a used Kiesel, they dont hold value very well but play amazingly. If you are 3rd world, get a PRS SE

So I just tell youtube not to recommend that stuff.There's luckily quite a few guys that have quality content. Jason Ricci, Gussow, Juzzie Smith, unfortunately JP Allen stopped making videos but he got me into it, the madlad decided to survive a 60 foot drop. So he's playing a little less.

>>121449637See I don't get what the fuck a /good/ guitar is meant to be. If you go by what gets posted in /gg/ most people seem happy with asian les paul copies. That's not gonna set you back $1000. I've had a mexican strat, a gibson lp studio and I have to say the best built guitar I've had was a godin session custom 59. That's built in canada. I got it new 5 years ago for less than $1000, reliable brand. But it's not ibanez or some other shit so I don't know what you're after.
what do i do with the 7th string when im playing regular chords, should i try to add it into the chord or just pretend its not there
>>121450820Learn how chords are constructed. Even on six strings you have to omit certain strings that aren't part of a chord

>>121450739A guitar that will last the rest of my life without developing significant issues. Has excellent tuning and intonation stability.Built with top shelf cuts of wood.High quality pickups.Non retarded wiring.The affordable guitars coming out of China and Indonesia have none of the above.Mexican Fenders are an exception since the factory is in Baja California and master luthiers from USA work there.
How many of you pathetic faggots actually play your instruments? Matter of fact, how many of you even own a single guitar or know how to play one?
Is tone in the amp or the body?
>>121451239not sure really. i haven't played enough guitars to care. my guitars are all nitro finish with a glossy neck. nitro can get a little sticky sometimes.i don't really grip the neck all that much. i think only a little bit of my thumb touches it usually.

>>121451353It's in the flamed maple top
>>121451353Amp for the type of sound you want and speaker for actual tone
>>121451353There alot of factors that affect tone. On electric solid body guitars the body has very marginal affect on the tone, some claim miniscule to none, and on traditional acoustic the body is the amplifier.
>>121451353it all sounds the same. all you need is an eq pedal. remember?
>>121451518I'd say for electric you really just need to decide what type of pickups and the output of them otherwise it's just personal preference
>>121451400>Wow look at the relicd top and the brand new shiny headstock and impeccable back and sides The top is also satin. Not entirely sure who the target audience is, maybe boomers that fantasized about being street musicians and are too old to wait for their d28 to age naturally.I guess this are the same people that post endlessly about poor people trying to justify their 2000 dollar Gibson and how they are unique snowflakes just like every other Gibson snowflake.https://youtu.be/irqzjhwQW7I
>>121451636Kinda there's also laws of physics. Scale length and gauge affect tone as well. There's social media guitar scientists who say gauge won't matter tonaly but go talk to bassists.https://youtu.be/tB737s4qNAk
>>121451747I can see gauge having an effect, especially larger differences having at least some effect. Material has an effect on strings like those coated color strings which just sound awful.
thinking about sam again..

>>121449397It’s been two days and the Revstar guy hasn’t responded to my email so I’m losing hope. I might not end up getting it. It’s hard finding guitars locally that aren’t cheapo Squires or metal guitars and I was so excited to actually find a Revstar so close but it might already be sold. I might just end up prowling Reverb for good prices on American Teles. I love the Tele sound but I hate all the bright flashy colors that a lot of Fenders have and that narrows down a lot of available Teles quite a bit.

Is there seriously any reason to buy a Fender when you can buy a Japanese copy for hundreds of dollars less?
>>121454800a MIJ Fender
>>121454800idk. do they sell those jap copies locally? i can buy a good fender in any music shop anywhere in the country.fenders are an american guitar. designed by americans, built by americans, played by americans. beaner fenders, jap fenders, chink fenders, and fender copies of any kind are not the real thing.just give me a cigarette, my zippo, and my telecaster (and some titties too)
>>121447828the idea is that a speaker cable will be a higher gauge and if you are using an instrument cable to connect some high powered amp to your cab, you could send too much power through it and fry the cable, maybe damage something else.In practice though, i've seen dozens of cases where people do it with no issues for hours at a time. I'd still use a speaker cable though, just in case

If you could punish one guitar brand, which would it be, and why?

>>121454347I don't know how people do intonation without a strobe tuner.They're cheap now, there's no excuse to be using anything else.

Is there anything wrong with going for the original RAT?There are a lot of clones out there that seem to be more popular.Can one really improve upon perfection?
okay, anon reporting in with my review of how the Vai/Satriani show went tonight>Vai plays first with his band>pretty cool riffs/melodies>sound is dogshit though>can't hear the bassist, the rhythm guitarist, or the keyboard player at all>everything sounds compressed >every song they play sounds the same>crowd consists literally 95% of people with grey hair, mostly older couples dressed in funeral home clothes>half the audience doesn't clap or cheer at the end of each song>Satriani comes up and does an hour with his own band>the material is garbage>EVERY song sounds like the SAME SONG>spends the majority of the time doing dive bombs on his whammy bar and noodling around on the 12th-17th fret, rarely venturing outside of that>sound is somehow worse>everything sounds extremely compressed again, like really really badly compressed. I CANT hear the other instruments>show lasts for 2-1/2 hours>Vai comes back out and the two of them literally play a cover of You Really Got Me and Enter Sandman>show endsI am never getting roped into going to see another concert with my stepdad again. Fuck that was awful.
>>121456682was there no eric johnson???
Anon's, I come in peace. After much though and deliberation, I have reached the plateau. No longer am I bound by the curse of more than 1 guitar and other useless equipment. No longer do I laugh upon either the rich or poor and their retarded purchase decisions. No longer do I feel the monstrous weight of never amounting to anything musically, the pressure of it all. Never again will I take part in the common rabblery that so many fall victim to. For I have found the instrument for me, and wholly for me. I can only wish upon ye a fraction of the fulfillment that I feel now in this moment.
I want a rosewood Telecaster like George Harrison’s so bad but don’t want to pay the $4000 they run for. They look so cool. I don’t care about George Harrison but that Tele is just next level cool.
>>121457591get an american standard. they go for $1800. theres some decent colors in the lineup
>>121450277>jazz iii picks (aka reddit: the pick)based homosexual
>>121456525nah the original is based
>>121456682>sound is dogshit thoughMan, this ruins so many good shows.I remember I saw Queens of the Stone age at the Wiltern in Los Angeles once. John fucking Garcia came out and sang Thumb.This should have been a completely epic moment except it sucked ass because they were just way too fucking loud and you couldn't hear shit. Left the show with a massive headache. Way too goddamn loud so all the instruments just kinda bled into each other. Horrible.QOTSA at the Greek Theatre the year before was incredible - awesome sound.Bad sound really fucking kills a show and it's unfortunately really common.
>>121454347>Jimi Hendrix.That's not a good endorsement because if you listen to his live shit he's constantly way out of tune.
>>121441978Don't do this unless you want permanent gastroparesis.
>>121442185>I'm a racist>RATMWow. A racist communist. How unusual.
>>121444758Well, yes, that is the best way to demonstrate the pure sound of the pedal. It's also John Mayer-approved.
>>121449637>buy cheap shitplank>replace pickups>do a proper setup on itThere. It's a good guitar now.Really.

is it ok to play a gig with a $200 bass or am I gonna get shit on
>>121459280The sexy bitch from Krangbang plays a $100 bass professionally all over the world. No one will care.
>>121459280If you can get some sick sounds out of it people won't care, heck some might even be impressed.
>>121457620They don’t have anything like a rosewood body Telecaster.
I want to buy a tremolo pedal but I can't decide if I like the Earthquaker Hummingbird or if I should just stick to something more simple like the Boss TR-2. I like how spastic the Hummingbird can get but I get the impression it doesn't do the more classic trem tones as well.
I'm trying to buy a cheap bass comboI was looking at the Cort CM20B and I'm wondering, it has no drive/gain knob, but could you achieve some regular distortion with the volume level? I'm also buying Cort B5 element bass, that has a preamp, so maybe I could get it distorted there?
I have 30k in liquid savings 40k net worth with my car.Can i justify buying a 2k guitar or still too poor?
>>121457620>paying 1800 i got mine for 1k. could probably find one for less if you're patient >>121457591if you're desperate for an all-fender rosewood guit, that's the price of admission. however, it looks like there are other companies making rosewood bodies (check reverb, or japanese sellers on ebay). so you might be able to find a body for cheaper and shove a fender neck on it.
>>121456682>stepdadlmao. Poor dude, imagine being married to your ugly fat mom and having you for a faggot step son. people have killed themselves for less
>>121461447still too poor
So i just went out of my comfort zone to the guitar shop to try a strat out only to realize comfort zone is there for a reason, and a good one for that.I come in and ask for american performer strat since thats the guitar im most interested in. I start playing to figure out the playability, changing barre chords in pretty fast tempo, staying in time. Suddenly, the boss comes up to me and says, why are you interested in that guitar, youre a complete beginner, why dont you try out this mx strat and squire. I havent played for 5 years but i didnt even have time to explain to him that nor did he care. So i try mx strat and the action is way too high and the neck is way too thick so its hard to play. On the squire i had too much friction on the fingerboard so it was hard to play also. So my questions are:1)Why was that guy such an asshole?2) why does mx fender have such high action and thick neck?
>>121461696>but i didnt even have time to explain to him that nor did he care.What... you should just been a little more assertive. Or maybe practice a little before buying high end gear.
Is my bass action really supposed to be around 2.5mm on the 12th fret? My shit is at like 4 or 5mm
>>121461696>1)Why was that guy such an asshole?he wasnt, he was trying to help you>2) why does mx fender have such high action and thick neck?because it was made by drug addicts
>>121461744it should be low enough to not buzz, and then fine tuned to your preference from there. playing the action too high is going to make your intonation sound like shit, and you're just having to death grip the neck like everyone who posts here beats off
>>121461538What point is it ok?
>>121461759But american strat was much easier to play, and i would have much more fun and better progress playing with it. So why would he care that i buy squier instead?
talk me out of buying a zemaitis
>>121461910make 2k a week, own a house, and have no debt
>>121462162it's too pretty, and you would be scared to play it after you get your first scuff on it.
>>121462120Well why didn't you ask him?
>>121462267yeah but i can larp as a japanese maid
>>121461882post a pic of it and not your tranime avatar
>>121462120look, they were wrong recommending a cheap guitar. But their heart was in the right placeimagine you run a guitar shop and a special needs man, wearing tattered and piss smelling clothes, comes into your shop and grabs a $1500 guitar and starts strumming retard chords. You notice he is having trouble holding the instrument, and you know if he drops it you will have to take his social security check for that month. I would have kicked you out personally
>>121461882>buying a chink SBC loaded with VSTs and Impuse Responses for a premiumcould have just bought a mini computer and ran reaper dawg
>>121462398Thanks for the chuckle but i have a job, so no special needs or social security checks for me. And i had pretty nice brand new hoodie on. So its 0/3 for you but overall D for effort
>>121462581>didnt deny the retard chordsnailed it
>>121462630Idk if barre chords are retard chords. I think i even played the hendrix chords with the thumb on low e string
>>121462677depends, did the barre chords have any extensions or was it just Maj/MIn? Playing the Hendrix chord out of context isnt helping your case bud

why didnt you tell me there is a new threadthat aint fair
Hey guys I'm looking for recommendations for a twangy guitar with lots of high end. I already have an ES-335 that has a very hot tone, but I want something to contrast with that. I'm leaning towards a single coil strat because that's all I know. What are some other good options I may be overlooking?
>>121464862tele?
>>121464879I guess I should have mentioned I also want some kind of tremelo system, since my 335 bridge is fixed and I don't want to install a bigsby. Just looking for something that will absolutely cut through any mix and has a tremelo, the more offensive the tone the better.
