Call me crazy. But I sold my Boogie Mark V25, JVM410H, Mesa Recto 2x12 and a pedalboard with 10 effects to get a Katana Artist MK2 combo with the footswitch and a japanese ESP Eclipse. And I’m SO HAPPY that I did. Now I have an incredible guitar and an all-in-one, no hassle amp that sounds great.

No it's not. He is widely seen as a guitar great by numerous publications. You can deny it all you want but it's true.

Incorrect, they will tell you how they think he is a good player.

Understandable then. I still keep a few of my nicer amps, but they're more decorative novelty than anything these days, same with pedals.


>>122595600
>get a Katana Artist MK2 combo with the footswitch and a japanese ESP Eclipse.

Funny, I have the Artist MKII and a Japanese ESP Horizon III. Pricy amps are mostly aesthetic, and to be quite honest, I prefer the aesthetic of not having a disgusting pedal board in front of me. Quite literally just guitar, cable, and amp.
I'd also like to admit that I'm a complete sucker for a lot of the crap that's on the edge of audiophile snakeoil. I have ovaltone cables and oil in paper capacitors, I have an expensive guitar picked out for the wood in its body and fretboard, I need to use just the right master8 strings for the tone I want, and I am honestly telling you I hear or feel more in those choices than a soldano, JVM, boogie, or any other tube amp. I don't even get the buyers remorse over it, since those amps hold their value pretty well, and trying out a katana artist is just chump change.

That's the saddest thing. Violin and brass students (STUDENTS) pay more for a decent starter instrument than most American made guitars.
So yeah, guitars are already poorfag to start with. You don't need to lower the bar more.

No. $79 gets you a chinese shit plank violin you are smoking rocks.

No student buys $79 instruments. That's for non players who probably won't do much.
Actual student instruments (be it brass or wood) are easily 1000+. Like in shops for actual classical and band students. And if they keep pushing to pro level, no one can afford the instruments at all. They have some good ones, but many players are loaned out a prized violin or something from some rich benefactor.
>>
>>122596008
I've never taken a lesson in my life. I use tabs or watch the person play if I want to play their song. Mostly just noodle shapes I know and the beauty of guitar is you just move your index finger to change key the patterns stay the same.
>>
>>122595948
True. Wife is a flute player, a high school student flute is about 2k these days. Uni to pro level is in the 12k+ range.
Makes the "Blues dentists are taking instruments away from real artists!" reddit whining even funnier. Imagine your identity is being an "artist" but you can't even scrounge up the measly what, 1.5k to get an American pro strat/jazzmaster? Even cheaper for better quality from Japan. You can deliver pizzas or groceries for a few weekends and afford a pro level guitar.

>>122596008
Have news for you bud, if you go to school for literally anything, you are teaching yourself and have to motivate yourself. Professor/teacher is only there to answer retarded questions you can google these days. If you want a structured curriculum, there are tons of them.

You're retarded, most students buy a cheap instrument until they actually learn the thing. Once you learn how to play you aren't a student then you get your big boy instrument.

Anything you'd recommend?

I find a lot if it overwhelming. I have a clear idea of what I'd like to learn, what I want to sound like and how I'd like to do it.

I feel like having a teacher who is skilled, experienced and good at physically demonstrating techniques and the like would be far more beneficial than simply watching a recorded video. I'm definitely interested in theory.

Just learn how to learn and you can apply it to anything.
How did you learn to read?
Apply critical thinking and transcribe that process to guitar.
>>
>>122596034
>beauty of guitar is you just move your index finger to change key the patterns stay the same.

This position approach isnt really conducive to getting better at guitar past that point. If you're relying on fingering and position, you are limiting yourself to box patterns. You're better of understanding the scales by intervals (1st, 2nd, 3rd, etc) methods of transitioning to other keys (flat 3rd, etc), which will give you a true comprehensive understanding of what really is some basic theory, and allow your improv to really take off by giving opportunity for chromaticism, as you'll actually understand what you're doing and where to do it.

Learn a scale you like on one string only to start. After you get the idea, the entire neck is a "position" for that scale. Also helps in building triads and sevenths, and you'll actually get what it means to be a diminishes/augmented/minor seventh, etc.
Once you have those basics down guitar is actually really easy.

When I was at school everyone bought these instruments through a school programme. I think they got you a used instrument and you paid small installments each month then each year you had a choice of giving it back and getting most of your money back, buying it outright or continuing.

Go to each course link and open it up. Tells you what the study topics are for each week. Guess what happens in real life, there or in any university? Professor tells you to fuck off and learn on your own time, they'll see you when it comes time to take an exam. Even tells you what book to use, "a Modern method for guitar: 123" or some other. If its good enough for people studying to do this shit for a living its good enough for you.

https://online.berklee.edu/store/product?product%5Fid=11250&usca%5Fp=t

I don't think I can give you anything more legit than this. You don't even have to finish it all, if you do what's in a few early classes you'll already have more of an understanding than most people that play. But guess what, there is NO class for how to be creative, that's something you can already do right now without even knowing how to play an instrument.

You don't need to know anything other than finger pattern shapes for 99% of boomer rock. Just look at AC/DC, they're musically and technically beneath the average high school band today, yet boomers consider them musicians. For many, all of this is about appearance, not actually enjoying music. They want the cool guitar, the relic worn in look, to stand on a stage and say they're in a band, its purely performative for their self image. Sex drugs and uh, I guess strum some strings here and there too at some point. That posturing is what nearly all guitar music is about honestly, and then a few autists here and there that legitimately listen to it not aware they're part of a joke.

I've been running an Acoustic 140 for about two years now. It still works great, but it's really old solid-state shit and sounds super muddy at high volume.
Either a vintage tube amp or a more modern hybrid/solid-state amp have been piquing my interest as far as a replacement goes.

If you care about the stratty middle position pickup pick right. If you like double Humbucker middle position pick left. If you don't care just pick the cooler color. Personally HSH is kinda eh.

so i was curious enough to at least look it up and its claim to fame is being used by marr and a few dogshit burger (redundant i know) bands? and because naturally no other amplifier has a chorus effect? sounds like the schizo is trying to pump and dump again

Wowzers, REAL TUBES? Like the guitar heroes of yesteryear had? Let me just spend 2000 dollars on this cumbersome, delicate antique! Surely I'll be as successful and as skilled as those famous guitarists of yore if I just use the same obsolete tech, which sounds indistinguishable from cheap and portable modern tech! And perhaps I also have to grow out my hair and wear a skin tight unitard! But above all, I need to record my album with a REAL Commodore Amiga that has a REAL 256kb RAM card for that REAL in the room tone, all generated by my REAL 3,000 tonepaint, battered to perfection by REAL American Fender craftsmen in Tijuana.

My most expensive guitar is a schecter that cost me 1600. That's generally about the price point of diminishing returns where you stop getting more features and start paying more for gravitas. I would have spent a lot less, but I wanted something with a Floyd Rose, two humbuckers, and a sustainiac, so I spent what I had to spend. People who have money don't blow it on turning their homes into museums of outdated tech. A great player will sound better than any of us running our best gear, even with a Squier and tube amp, as 90% of your tone is in your technique.

I told you what my most expensive guitar is. What is the problem? Here's a picture of one. I could also take a picture of mine, but I don't see what that would accomplish. It's not an expensive guitar, and I never claimed to value guitars for their price tag. I mean, if you insist, I could take a picture, but I just don't see how that's not a dead end for the discussion. I'll do it for you if you go ahead and pre-emptively cope though.

I don't think you know what any of those words mean. You're just using them as thought terminating cliches. What am I coping with? I set out to make the point that I do in fact have more money than you as I have done before, and you backed down. What am I projecting onto you? If you can come up with literally anything I promise you won't see it anymore. What is the straw man I'm arguing against? If you can come up with one I won't do it anymore. I really am curious as to how you can justify your use of those three words. Your answer will be nothing short of schizophrenic, which I will find fascinating. It will provide valuable insight into the depth of delusion that cargo cultists live in.

>The utter nonsense greentext you've included in the prior post.
That's not even remotely an answer to the question. What am I projecting on to you?
>This ridiculous tube afficionado boogeyman you've invented in the original post.
Boogeyman? You mean "real amp with tubes" can't be fairly characterized as someone who is a ridiculous tube afficionado? If the implication that a solid state amp is a "fake" amp doesn't make someone an unreasonable tube freak, then what does? Again, if you can come up with a straw man that is actually a straw man and not an accurate depiction, then I won't use it anymore.
>Frankly, your inability to parse the nonsense you've already posted is baffling. Your ego belies the truth

Cumshitter got raped twice and now spends his time being mocked and ridiculed at on 4chan about it. Is that justice?

He deserved it for being a huge annoying faggot

I wouldn't get a import floyd anon. i've serviced a lot of them and they'll regularly have tuning stability that makes people think all floyds are bad
aim for a guitar with a floyd original or at least a floyd 1000 and you'll be happier

Who is cumshitter anyway? Is he the one that posts that obnoxious blue robot that gets deleted after ten minutes?

Squier just dropped a $350 6 string jazz bass. Give me a good reason not to buy this cheap niche beast.

country lead is so unnatural to play. it is super cool tho. i wish it was easier for a loser like me to understand and play.

>Thunderbird is the goat
the goat of neck dive holy shit anon have you ever played one
>>122595836
P bass is the goat no other bass comes close to the number of records its on. J is nice but you have to deal with single coil hum
>>
>>122601366
country is one of the few genres on which your can earn a living being a shitter guitarrist, if you live in the right place
>>
>>122601520
most country players i see have insane chops play super fast licks, none of it seems like its improvised even tho it is.

i feel like if i play this in a solo i might as well play it note for note.

>the goat of neck dive holy shit anon have you ever played one
It's just pure rumbling bass. None of the bright snappiness of Fenders. Just like the guitars. The Stingray is a better Fender and isn't quite as snappy.

This shit got reliced

>>122600410
have you owned a floyd rose before? ive owned a jackson soloist hss w/ floyd that was very similar to this and a charvel 24 with a floating non locking trem and much prefer the charvel. everything feels higher quality than the jackson for a little bit less money. that being said if your set on that guitar white on white with the maple board all day
>>
>>122601585
>just pure rumbling bass
tbird literally is just a J with humbuckers. I wouldnt describe a P bass with flats as bright and snappy. Stingray is a treble canon what are on you about

WHy are they pirate?

I actually like Blue STeel. Used to play them but my new used les paul has erieball and I dont wanna change the type of string on it
>>
>>122601978
i want it so bad, but it seems like all listings are fake chinese copies
>>
>>122601774
They don't sound alike. Jbass is even snappier than Pbass..in all my experiences at least. That's why I recommended the Pbass. It's the better of the two.
>>
>>122601978
Very cute

>>122602044
because of the font of "dean markley"
it is pirate font
and why is it pirate font? it would make more sense if it was "captain markley" or something. but dean? the dean is the guy in charge of a school.
are these theory fag strings?
i have many questions and confusion about the entire thing and i might just throw these strings in the trash.
>>
>>122602271
It's surprising they're still around.. and still a private company that wasn't acquired. I never wanted their gear and never known anyone with a Dean Markley guitar. I'm sure they're fine, but when everyone else is getting swallowed up by big corps, I don't see how it's worked out for them.
