Crazy Train edition
First for being Neil Matthew Fox.
Reckon I've left it too late to be a rockstar lads. I might have to settle for that middle of the road crowd and boomer groupies.
Mountain won thoughbeit
I win
Guitars are onions
>>122797997Katana MK III and ....?
>>122799569squier bullet strat
Gibsons look kinda gay
>decide to record some song snippets>it sounds like shit>give up>start from scratch again a few weeks later>restart the cycle
>>122799957Nah
>>122799957This! So much this!
>>122797997Randy Roads should've played an SG like Tony Iommi
Plugins sound great, surely not from my speakers. Any bass note and they shit themselves. What's a good clean amp for under 400-500$. Preferably 2x10'' and no modelers pls.
RIP, they just went bankrupt because everyone is buying used guitars. If you ever wanted a Japanese copy then now is the time to buy since prices will go up
>>122800108A used Roland JC 40 fits if you don't care it's solid state
>>122800225How will I get a cheap guitar with a sustainer?
>>122800265Used gear where I'm from is a no go.Gramps sell their old shit for more than it was new.>I know what I have>Low offers VILL be ignored
>>122800315Okay so looking around the only thing at that price is a 2x12 fender champion, a boss katana or some Laney 2x12 around $600-750 range otherwise it's stuff like from line 6.Otherwise everything else is well above your price.
>>122800445Is the Champion anything like a Twin Reverb or is it more like a modeler?
Any acoustic guitar recommendations? Ive bought Enya and Adam Black guitars and im not pleased so i must be an idiot who needs the internet to help themI like my old finlayson but id love a decent 3/4 for camping
https://vocaroo.com/1ak3tZIJNkqWTone testing... driving AmpliTube's "JCM Slash" sim with Ibanez TS9 Neural Amp Capture on top of some YouTube backing track
>>122800460I just looked into it and it's modeling sadly.Seems like most of this stuff is at this price point.
>>122800506Sounds pretty good
>>122798222imagine being such a retard that you troll gg using your full name
>>122800506Im so fed up with those amp simps, they all sound like trash, what gives?
>>122800634The stock cabinets aren't great or just ass.
>>122800634I like jamming with them
>>122800315Looking around there's a lot of half stacks and amp head. It's mostly Marshall and high gain stuff, unfortunately. Is a Fame T64RS (60 watt hybrid amp) with a 4x 8'' cab for 150€ a good deal?
>>12280070650 for the head100 for the cab
>>122800077SGs are criminally overrated and directly relate to cocksucking tho. :(
>>122800108There's no point getting a tube amp at your price point if you won't find anything used, anything that is around $500 new will be shit. You should just get a katana or save up money to get a higher budget.
>>122800805I'm more than fine with solid state. I just don't want DSP modelling.
>>122800832Why
>>122800843I want to have a single amp, not a spaceship with too much control. I also feel like an electrical circuit, regardless of it being solid state or valve, will perform better than something digital, but that might be caveman behaviour on my part.
>>122800896Get Kemper
>>122800915The Kemper Player is 700$. It will be infinitely more versatile, but I'd still need a cab (and a power amp, I think). For that I'll just get some used Marshall or that Fame.But thanks for the suggestion.
>>122800956Save money and buy Axe Fx 3Not some shitty amp from some dudes damp basement. Its 2024
>>122800896Most important factor about your sound in a conventional (non-digital modelling) rig is your speakers. So maybe get whatever amp you want for $200-300 and invest the rest in a nice pair of speakers for it. For live playing I use a Hughes & Kettner Ampman Classic + a makeshift cabinet with 2x10'' Greenbacks, since solid state is much easier to carry around. I think overall it cost close to your budget, maybe a bit more since I bought it brand new.
>>122801011>>122800915You sound like that froosh poster.
>>122801011But that also needs an interface
>>122800832You want frfr or bass amp then?
>>122800832>>122800896In that case I would just look for any Roland Jazz Chorus. Some solid state Ampegs, Oranges, or even Peaveys could be okay too. Just wouldn’t look for tubes.
>>122801066No. Just a (guitar) amp straight into (guitar) speakers.
Explorers = ChadSGs = VirginSimple as.
>>122801076I agree with the Jazz Chorus. If what you want is cleans it is the perfect amp. And you can get decent overdrive sounds if you have good pedals to put in front of it.
I wish i had a fender single coil strat bros. All black. That would be so dope. Id put it in the bridge pickup and let that bitch ring out
>>122801129Id run it through a little combo amp with reverb and a touch of distortion too.shit would be sooooo cash, man.
>>122801151>>122801129woa
I found an Orange Terror Bass for 200$.Shame I don't play bass, these go for 600$ on reverb.
>>122800445>>122800805>Katana >>122800108You could get BOSS GT-PRO for like $300 for preamp. It's much more versatile as Katana, probably more tweaking available and I believe the COSM modelling is much on par with Katana's approach. Buy the cheapest solid state power amp coupled with it + cheapest cab. You would have something much better, original and more fun than Katana probably by the same price.
Id grow my hair and beard out, get a tattoo of a naked woman on my shoulder, wear shades and smoke cigarettes on stage while ripping solos, id wear a tank top with stains on it too. Itd be sooo money
>>122801231>knottaker shilling his garbage rack gear>again
Ill tell you this boys, you dont need fancy amps and guitars and pedals or any of that shit to write a good song, all you need is creativity.
>>122801241We can all dream
After much deliberation on a new guitar I have decided to go with pic related. I thought about a strat or tele but I just don’t do enough single coil stuff, and my Les Paul doesn’t have a Floyd. Also wanted something a bit lighter than my Les Paul. Getting a really good deal on it. When I previously owned a Wolfgang special I found it cramped near the nut so I sold it for a prs custom 24 se. didn’t really care for that guitar much, sold it. If charvel made a Mexican guitar with Duncan’s or I could find anything decent used with a Floyd I’d probably do that but for now just going back to a wolfie. /blog
>>122801315I forgot to add that charvel has been going the route of gotoh tremolos even on their Duncan guitars which is weird. Why would anyone want a super Strat without a locking nut? Either make a hard tail or put a Floyd on it.
>>122801315Goofy looking, but looks like its comfy to play
my sweetwater guy is in the hospital recovering from surgery and he still got me a great deal!
>>122799216What's the guitar with the colored numbers on the fretboard?
>>122801315Rockstars play beautiful guitarsWannabe NGMIs play these gloopy looking hunks of wood.
it only took me 15 minutes to realize gibson SGs are trash and I sent it back for an american tele deluxe
>>122801397Some sort of Jason Becker signature series
>>122801397It's the signature model of a guy with ALS.
>>122801439You know how many pro musicians play Wolfgangs? lol
>>122801370Locking nuts & floyds are but one of the snakeoils of the guitar world. A strat-style guitar can stay perfectly in tune with a conventional vibrato system, especially a good quality one like a Japanese made Gotoh, as long as it has a straight tuning peg arrangement, good quality tuners and a well cut nut.
https://voca.ro/1ld9TBzBXGh1Made this through my 2013 celeron laptop.
>>122801441What model was it? Gibson has about 1,283,107 different heel joint designs for its SGs and most of them are crap. Also they equip many of them with 490r/t pickups which are plain trash (mine was, swapped them along with the rest of the electrinics and it sounded like a dream).
>>122801499you should learn to play guitar before commenting on it knottaker
>>122801499It’s definitely not snake oil. Floyd rose bridges have their downsides but they are super stable. I have played Floyd’s since 98 and I’ve never had an issue with them tuning stability wise. Outperforms even the best setup on a fixed bridge let alone floating trem without locking nut. Every guitar is going to bind at the nut and allow strings to stretch under heavy bends and vibrato. Locking nut mitigates most of that, and so does clipping the string ends. My only gripe is that the fine tuners don’t have enough range for adjustment.
>>122801554Keep shelling out more cash to the big corpos for things that don't matter.
https://youtu.be/yn9Gwqf5maY
>>122801627faggot
>>122801582It sure makes it stable, but for 99% of the things you might do with a Floyd, a well setup 2-point trem would perform just as well without 1/10th of the hussle, and likely also provide better sustain. Also just a locking trem by itself won't cure every tuning stability issue. Many lesser models do not hold up to use.
>>122801592You just said gotoh is as good which is at the same price point as Floyd. Which it isn’t. It’s a little smoother for light vibrato but it can’t handle tons of abuse.
>>122801627Nice t shirt dawlg
>>122801653thanks
>>122801634Yeah I’m not talking about chinko pop licensed Floyd’s I’m talking high end like the evh has or original German / schaller. I don’t like Ibanez bridges either.
Correct me.if im wrong. Arent all electric guitars just 2 pieces of wood connected with a couple screws and very basic hardware in them? A fucking magnet wrapped around with copper wire whoaaa, intense engineering dawlg. My point is, shit is all the same, just buy what colour and shape you like, call it a day. No need to argue which is better. Its all the same shit, no? Faggotty ass
>>122801697yea you are wrong. you can leave now
>>122801627Arent you going deaf from all that clipping cancer noise youre producing? Id hate to be your neighbour lol. Fuck it man, if youre having fun, youre having fun big man.
>>122801697Erm no the sigma part about good quality guitars is the wood, hardware, how its setup etc. cheap guitars use cheap woods that aren’t as stable, they have horrendous setups, frets are terrible, nut cut terrible, bad pickups, pots, selectors. Funko pop tuning machines. Great guitars have graphite reinforced necks, direct to body mounted pickups, 500k pots, stainless steel frets, etc. not only do cheap guitars sound junko they play junko. Guitars aren’t something to cheap out on.
>>122801740It's fun but it's also work. Can be frustrating sometimes. I wish I knew more.
>>122801627Honestly not sure how you can be this bad at guitar.
>>122801761Having said that, a $2000 guitar will sound marginally better than a $1000 guitar, if both of them are made with the best stuff their prices justify. Nowadays that parts and cnc machines are in abundance, it is quality control that makes the biggest differences, and cheapo models are just churned out of the factory without much care. You might come across a diamond or a lemon. More expensive guitars will be better looked after during production and receive a nice setup (unless you've bought Gibson).
>>122801761Id say these days for about 300 dallaz you can cop yourself a guitar with all the features youve described, which isnt alot of money. The setup, i agree, cheap guitars have terrible action usually, but its a really easy fiz actually, just lower the saddles and youre good. Dont know why they dont bother at the factory, takes 5 mins. Oh, and you can just buy top of the range pickups real cheap and throw them into a shitplank.
>>122801627Looks like a whale. Sounds like a whale being harpooned. Isn’t that a coincidence?
>>122801810It boggles my mind of what Im doing is wrong but if you hit different notes and different times it's 'right' Like what is that? Ive been listeing to Kejji Hanio's interviews and he has some interesting ideas. He doesn't learn any of the 80 odd instruments he plays which is inspiring but I'm not like that, Ive always wanted to learn. I don't know how I'm this way either. I just have to believe that what I'm doing is a good thing because it's all I know. I was doing this for years before the camera even got turned on.
>>122801541I'm being hyperbolic for the sake of this thread but it was a 2022 Standard, QC was fucking horrible though. I've played Chinese epiphones that were constructed better. Kinda ruined the entire allure of Gibson for me tbqh, just another American institution coasting off past prestige while producing an inferior product, I dunno
>>122801855One of the things Kejji Hanio said was that musicians should be able to use bad sounds too in their music, and that would make the instruments happy. I connected to that.
>>122801783Lower the goddamn gain before you pop your eardrums, and play to backing tracks, drum loops, theres loads on youtube. It will get your timing right, make you more deliberate with the choices of chords/notes you pick, ya fagzorg
>>122801865I had to play through quite a few SGs before settling for mine. Thankfully I finally came across a perfectly made one. Still got rid of all the stock electronics in order to make it sound as good as guitars at half its price.
>>122801891huh the gain never bothered me. I guess the Metal zone, BD-2 Morley fuzz combo isn't a winner.
>>122801827Yeah once you pass the 1000 dollar threshold guitars become more about binding, flamed or quilted tops, paint, slightly better pickups. Unless we’re talking about fender or Gibson. The player series and most epiphones sub 1000 are garbage. The newer epiphones with Gibson hardware are good. The charvel / Jackson / evh Mexican guitars are good. There’s just something weird about the fender player series. Ibanez, Yamaha, schecter, and other Indonesian models can be really good. PRS SE’s are solid but the pickups are shit and their QC isn’t great. I wish 1000 dollar guitars were flawless but they just aren’t. Even as a 30 year pro it’s hard to justify 3 grand on a Les Paul traditional, prs core or American ultra. The midrange epis with custombuckers are a lifeline for people who don’t want wall hangers.
>>122801891I'm actually planning of using some clean tones when I get my new board Imm a play over some drumm loops rn
>giving Craig attention and not just calling him a faggotand you wonder how he got that way
>>122801865My 59 epi is pretty flawless and played / sounded better than all the Gibson demos guitar center had. I’ve played some good Gibsons lately. It really comes down to the individual guitar. Which is why I’m so hesitant to buy guitars sight unseen these days. You can’t even trust that a 3000 dollar USA guitar will be perfect from the factory.
>>122801943Bro Craig is gonna make it, he has that glow about him, hes gonna be a famous guitar player in a successful band, swimming in pussy. Youre just a bitter hater, past your prime, collecting guitars which you never play. Many such cases. Sad.
>>122801922It's a shame that even 1000 bucks don't get you decent QC anymore. And I haven't checked brand new Fenders in a while but I've been hearing their mid range is shitting the bed which is a shame, because I remember those MiM/MiJ models being absolute bang for the buck when they'd cost <$1000.Having said that, I agree with what you said about Indonesian models. All of them I've tried have been surprisingly good, I was expecting China tier, but it seems they are at least Korea, and hopefully might approach Japan soon.
>>122801855You have to like learn how to play the guitar first you know. How to fret and pick notes, mute notes you don’t want to hear, play chords, bend and vibrato. Guitar is not an instrument where you can just pick it up and play without putting effort into learning how it functions. That’s why music teachers have always existed.
>>122801983he’s gonna make a casserole more like
>>122802001I managed to get a new player ii tele for 700$, I'm so fucking nervous after what I've heard but how bad can you fuck up a tele they're like the most simple guitar of all time.
>>122801922>>122801922Dont know what youre yapping about boomer. Ive had a fender tele player few years back, and that guitar sounded and played fucking impeccable. Had to sell it, but damn i miss that whore.
>>122801983
>>122802001Yeah the Mexican strats were always good just needed better pickups. I played a player II Strat the other day which is supposed to be heavily upgraded with rolled fret edges, different pickups, rosewood fretboard. The frets were nice but the setup was awful, trem was half an inch off the body. For 900 dollars I expect a guitar that is playable from the factory. Yamaha and schecter for instance sell guitars that are nearly perfectly setup. Revstars are beautiful instruments. It’s a shame we can’t have the Strat equivalent on the market. (Pacificas are butt ugly refuse to acknowledge them.)Someone just needs to start making fenders at the 1k price point and do them right (not PRS)
Bro craig looks like that guitarist from deftones, chubby but plays aggressive chops
>>122802092How’s the American Standard if you can find one used?
>>122802068Shit you wouldn’t understand. You weren’t around for the golden era of guitars. Player series are ass
>>122802111Generally good. Those are the ones you want to look for used. But closer to 2000 than 2010s. 90s usa and jap strats were very good.
>>122802092Perhaps if you want traditional Fender shapes it's worth going the Partscaster route, if you know how to solder and setup a guitar, $1000 should get you a nice instrument, on par with the good old MiMs. And more personalized.
>>122802144I’ve been pissed off at enough fenders that I don’t really want one. I had a player series Strat that had the sloppiest neck I’ve ever encountered. Just fretting barre chords would change the pitch a semi tone. Even the American Strat I owned was a pig to dial in. The hardware feels cheap. Idk maybe some are good
>>122802113It had perfect action, barely had to press the string for it to sit on the board, thin slick little frets, a nice wide neck, strings nicely spaced out for my gorilla hands. The pickups were singing, what more can you ask of a huitar, really? Its all placebo preferences past that.
>>122802015>How to fret and pick notes, mute notes you don’t want to hear, play chords, bend and vibrato.can't you identify all those happening in my videos? Like you named all the things I can do, what I can't do is play in keyhttps://youtu.be/CoIeaLNIkRA
>>122802224holy shit I hate this fucking faggot
I’m absolutely smitten with my 2014 American standard tele I bought last week. I know very little of electric guitars but it sounds great and plays very easy, action is just about perfect and intonation is good. I like dialling up the reverb on the amp and letting chords ring out. Love the colour too.
>>122802260yea we heard you the first hundred times
>>122802224>>122802259At least I listen to your guys advice when I can, ike playing over the drum loops
>>122802260Beautiful guitar, it would look better on me then it does on you tho
>>122802282>listening to /gg/s adviceThats where you went wrong bud, were all failed musicians over here.
It’s weird that the two most insufferable trolls in /gg/ are both clueless obese guys that spam their full name constantly. Weird
>>122802318welcome to the internet bro
So, I have an epiphone Les paul - nothing expensive or truly professional. I have a $25 Honeytone amp which actually sounds pretty good at low volumes and is All I need for practice. But I want an amp that sounds clean at higher volumes, because now I can tell how the Honeytone is the limiting factor. I have some cheap pedals as well that sounds ok at low volume.What's the cheapest tube amp that has enough volume to fill up a grocery store parking lot and still sound crisp? Also, as a beginner, do I even need a tube amp?
>>122802318RIP Spamuel Campos
>>122802318and neither of them can play lol
>>122802224so does my playing amke more sense with the drum loop? I can't tell myself bad sounds from good
>>122802218Yeah like I said you have no basis of what’s good or isn’t. You can’t even describe action properly. I’ve owned and played hundreds of guitars. I’m very picky about what I buy.
>>122802336To be fair I don’t make an aimless cacophony when I play, I’m just amateurish.Craig is on another level of autism.
>>122802337> can't tell myself bad sounds from goodYea we can tell. It’s really bad
>>122802345Your ego makes you worse though
>>122797997>needs more than one pick up
>>122802328You’re not getting a “cheap” tube amp and no you don’t need one. I don’t know what “filling a grocery store parking lot” even means.
>>122802359I don’t really have much of an ego, I just won’t let you destroy what little I do have much to your frustration.
I really don't get it cause when I play it's almost every phrase ends up in the right place, like tetris.When I listen to my playing it sounds like someone talking to me in complete sentences, tho many sentences are long.
>>122802372>schizo
>>122802338If youre in a position to jizz out thousands on guitars, good on you bro, i just gotta make do with what i can have. And i bet im a better player then you anyway, even with my shitty 90 $ squier
>>122802406thems fightin words
>>122802345I prefer craig, he's more creative and has that swag. You juet look like a boring middle class whiteboi making songs about heartbreak like a faggot.

Why does Telecaster hardware come in such shit colors?>WhiteBoring>BlackUgly>GoldEhhhh?I want to replace my stock, offwhite pickguard and chrome hardware in my green Telecaster, but everything looks like shit.
>>122802328Tube amps are a meme. If you don't want to go digital, get a Roland or Twin Reverb and a few decent drive pedals
You know what it's like to walk around as someone whose "famous' on 4channel? It makes you paranoid af
>>122802432Hi Craig.
>>122802416Haha, nah, im joking bro, im pretty bad actually. Good on you to own expensive guitars, its nice. All love big homie.
>>122802406I don’t mean to sound like I’m full of myself but I’m professionally taught and I’ve been playing for 30 years. I used to practice 8 hours a day. Guitar is subjective to an extent but I haven’t heard anyone on this board that is at my level.
At what price point do you start seeing diminishing returns on guitars?
1st 4 never shittin/gg/ cum#IntactBlackCherry
>>122802443Thats a good looking guitar, id play that day and night. Maybe youre just bored of it?
>>122802508Acoustic: £3000Electric: £1000
>>122802463Roland are solid state
>>122802527I didn't think it would be as high as that for electric, but can see it being that for acoustic.
>>122802531Yes, that's the point.
>>122802542Twin reverb is tube. Not seeing your point
>>122802468Being known by a dozen or so angry nerds on a Tibetan throat singing discourse page has never crossed my mind in public.
>>122802508Honestly as soon as you get past a few hundred dollars. Not saying it isn't worth getting a better instrument though, thats just where you start seeing diminishing returns. A 300 dollar guitar is likely to be at least 2x better than a cheap 150 starter, but a 600 dollar guitar probably won't be 2x better than the 300 dollar one. Once you start getting past 1000 dollars the difference is mostly superficial things like the finish and prettier woods, or perhaps better tuners/bridge etc. And they will definitely get more attention in the factory setup because they don't want anyone picking up a 1000 dollar guitar and thinking it plays like shit.
>>122802555The main argument people use for choosing tubes over solid state is >muh silky smooth overtones, muh driveThe anon is looking for a clean amp. I'm saying that it doesn't matter whether it's tube or solid state. Solid state amps do have advantages over the tube ones
>>122802491I bet you get loads of pussy, they just soak up their panties when they hear you play big dawlg
>>122802512Not mine, just been browsing for nice hardware/pickguard combinations. This one is mine. A little closer to surf green but not quite. I'm thinking I might pull the trigger on gold hardware and a gold humbucker cover.
>>122802611Nice wall color.
>>122802369> not getting a “cheap” tube amp and no you don’t need oneThanks. I like the Honeytone, and it has a small adapter for, like, computer speakers. Can I hook it up to louder speakers?>i don’t know what “filling a grocery store parking lot” even meansI'm homeless and trying to come up with a standard. As a beginner, I kind of have no idea what I'm talking about.>>122802463
>>122802611This design is cursed for my taste. A dark fretboard with a light colour body just looks shit, to me atleast. Also, telecaster with a humbucker is yikes.
>>122802587maybe it will in New York
>>122802596Not really. Just saying I have tens of thousands of hours into practicing.
>>122802666Oh, what are you going to do, come up and call me fat to my face? Scary.
Holy shit why are guitars so expensive now? I'm trying to come back to the game, last guitar I bought was a korean LTD 10 years ago about 700 bucks and an ESP Standard was probably about double than that. Now a new japanese ESP with shittier frets is $3,000? Even my LTD has become more expensive than what I pay for. I have no hope in getting a new one now.
>>122802725Write a song about it
>>122801827>receive a nice setupTell that to Fender. Last American Pro 2 telecaster I looked at not only had basically no setup, but the rosewood board was not even sanded properly. Was rough as fuck and unfinished.
>>122802725You can thank Biden for that. At least Gibsons seem more reasonable now lol.
Like the smell of my fingers after playing
It's so hard to leave these threads. This is my social life
>>122802661I get it. I wanted something unique, and the color choices were white, black, baby blue, or this. Seemed like the only thing with personality.Humbucker is getting replaced with likely a Fralin Unbucker, which I'm told sounds great split. Or maybe even a P90 clone.
>>122802725Yes have you heard of this new fad called inflation
>>122802890I don't rember entry level jap guitars costing a car
>>122802918>entry level jap guitarsNot really a thing any more. Entry level all moved to Indonesia.
Every other daySo it seemsHere for a quiet stayAny meansIsnt there another wayTo be seenBe that as it mayAs it mayMay
>>122802881Its still better then my baby blue squier mustang my dude, lol. Id grab that off your hands real quick. Just put a single coil in there, buy another pickguard with a slot for a singlecoil off ebay for a few dallaz and youre good, just shooting ideas ar you. Its good as it is honestly. As long as its comfy to play is all that matters.
>>122802849I actually wash my hands everytime i put the guitar down if i go for smokes or whatnot, that metalic smell aint pleasant
test
>>122802881Unique guitar colors make you look dumb. There’s a reason pros stick to standard color schemes. Aside from EVH who ended up playing standard colors later in his career almost every super well known guitarist sticks with standard shapes and basic colors. It’s a classic look
>>122803056Even Craig does this.
>>122803070It’s only the try hard wannabe types that must have everything custom and unique. Like Rhett Shull. You don’t want to be a tool like Rhett shill do you? White black or sunburst it is.
So is it just cheaper to buy an original floyd rose and put it in my korean LTD or not worth it? Only problem with my guitar is the tuning.
>>122803108Have you considered investing 10 minutes into learning how to set up a floating bridge instead
>>122803097Pastel, neon, red, blue, purple, gaudy quilt and flamed tops. Gold hardware. Anything boutique. Anything that makes you look like a faggot basically.
>>122803108Does it have a licensed floyd rose already? If so it’s going to run you 400+ for a German. If it doesn’t it’s going to cost you more than the guitar is worth to have it modified
>>122803056This is such a boomer take, right up there with paying $5K to get a pre-reliced guitar a la ripped jeans
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VGUp_MqAK-wHow do I get this twinkly guitar sound in the intro? It's very plinky and bell like.
>>122803116>>122803117What about an Evertune? What's the concensus of Floyd vs Evertun in 2024?
>>122803136Boomers are the most guilty of this lol. They love fancy custom boutique shit and 3k dollar paint jobs. None of them can play worth shit either. The number one 10 top PRS customers are dentists. Just look at how ugly this is.
>>122803149So what your're saying is, you can't afford it? Kek I win
>>122803131>Gold hardwareI'm not one for gold hardware. But sometimes on the right black guitar it can look kind of good.
>>122803108>google search original floyd rose>$599For 500 grams of steel? Shit better be moulded from silver at that fuxking price what the fuck, how do these companies get away with it?
>>122803161Tremolos are for neckbeards who can't accept the fact that they're a 13 year old mind stuck in a 40 year old bodyReal connaisseurs play fixed bridges
>>122803171that one really gets my butt fartin'
>>122803171Sour grapes
>>122803171On stage it probably looks great but you're right
>>122803149No you’re not understanding. Pre reliced guitars are what I’m complaining about. Boomers love that shit. Boomers also love gaudy neon 80s guitars and gold hardware. Not only am I not a boomer I’m advocating for traditional shapes and colors because it’s classy.
>>122802590Yeah I did see someone once mention that at the lower end when you double the price you can really tell the difference. But after that you're paying for more aesthetical differences and better qc.I was just wondering.
>>122803144No not floyd anything. It's this guitar. I don't know how you call it (straight through system?)
>>122803186That guitar is 13,000 dollars too kek
>>122800506you sound like shit fuck off you piece of shit. you don't know how to dial in tone.
>>122803200Yeah just sell it and buy a guitar with at least a Floyd 1000 series. Not licensed junk. It would cost you like 700 dollars to have a German one put in.
>>122803177I have to agree with this one. (Mostly because ive only had bad experiences with my cheapo planks going out of tune lol)
>>122803153Sounds like a Gibson Les Paul to me. But you cant afford it. Lol
Anyone fancy a mostly finished luthier built guitar for £125?
>>122803233>Mass tear-out on the peg holesI'll pass thanks
>>122803233Man this guy has some real shitplanks for sale.
>>122801315If you're going to get a Floyd, you should go all the way and get one with a recessed route.
>>122803233A guy literally died making it. Its prolly haunted bruh
>>122803267>He doesn't want to put his soul to rest by finally finishing the guitar
>>122801634>sustainStop.
>>122803286I would if it wasn't in the UK

How much does a good re-fret work cost?
>>122803362A good refret costs 300 dollars. It's a literal scam anyone can hammer in a piece of metal into some wood.
>>122803177Nah unfortunately you need them for a lot of covers. It bugs me that the barrier for entry on getting a solid cover rig is so high. Tunings can at least be solved with polyphonic pitch shifting mostly.. but you still have to have a PAF guitar, Floyd rose guitar, and single coil Strat at the bare minimum. EMG if you need that specific tone.
>>122803410>coversYes sorry, I didn't mean to exclude actual 13 year olds
>>122803382You know how much work goes into a refret? You have to hammer the old ones out, clean all the cavities, glue and hammer the new ones in, clip them, crown the edges, file and sand, level, dress, do a complete setup and intonate. It’s probably 12 hours worth of work and requires a ton of knowledge to do it right. 300 is a steal
>>122800506the jcm slash is so lackluster, the hiwatt is usually my go to
>>122803422Try getting gigs for anything that isn’t covers in 2024. Unless you already have a fan base that will pay to see you live.
>>122803458>Unless you already have a fan base that will pay to see you live.If you don't you should quit right away, at least with that attitude
>>122803471I play with an original band, but we still have to do half covers to get gigs. And we’re pretty well known. Luckily it’s all based stuff like 3 doors down and creed.
>>122803484Original doesn't automatically mean good, evidently
>>122800506Aside from your tone sounding like shit I hate how many hammer-ons and pulloffs you use. What an annoying style of playing.
>>122803493We are pretty good.. kind of like breaking Benjamin. Rock is dead
What is the best app to learn guitar? Justinguitar? Yousician?what else?
>>122803510Guaranteed you guys suck
>>122803544Just watch Marty Schwartz on youtube. Very knowledgable individual.
Buying a road worn guitar is the gayest thing you can do, hope none of you fags do this
>>122803570Nah I don’t even like real road worn guitars.
>Went for a walk today>Past this cute little pub standing on its own>Hear cacophony of sound coming from it>Check it out>Bar was tiny>Have rooms upstairs where you can just jam with others or rent one for your band to practice>Already have instruments there or you can take your ownDo we need more based little pubs like this bros?
>>122803614We need less blogs like yours
>>122803647I was just trying to party with you guys :(
>>122803647Better than Craig posting awful YouTube links with no description or the fatty always posting his guitars that he can barely play in every thread
>>122803200string through
>playing in a cover bandSruffed into a corner of some shitty pub where it smells like piss, playing buttrock to boomers. >the overpowering drummer drowning out the entire sound, all you can hear is the fucking snare.Why do they choose to live this way /gg/ ?
>>12280375999% of cover bands are actual boomers that have no musical ability
>>122803759I watched a cover band the other week. Not kidding they had a singer, three guitarists, a bass player who just seemed to keep resting his bass to the side to get a drink, and a drummer on a stage that could barely fit the drumkit on and wasn't even wide enough for them all to stand on.I say "cover band" they just played a collection of various songs and the PA system was dogshit. Very bizarre. I must have been the youngest one there by about 40 years.
>>122803811Boomers love playing bars so they can get shitfaced for free
>>122803836Seems to be true going off what I witnessed. Was still pretty fun despite all of that.
>>122803842When did this happen? Forgot he existed
>>122803882Still better than Craig
>>122803171I used to give af about this stuff when I started woodcraft. I still give a nod to exotic material, but for the most part someone can take a piece of hardware store lumber and do the same with enough effort. More power to Paul for finding a market at any price.
>>122803962Never liked him anyway.. he was always winking and being generally a faggot
>>122802537>>122802551If I cared what chatgpt thought, I'd subscribe to Jim Lill.
>>122803691https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fJNn2vsyw4Ethis tone is amazing
>>122802318there's another namefag?
Surely there's at least one person here with tasteful gear and tasteful playing? Right?
>>122804069Yes bro, check my voc from earlier>>122801527
>>122804069If they exist they either don't post or rarely
>>122804091It’s not good
Money For Nothing is extremely overrated. Cemetery Gates is a better riff
>>122804110I would but my basement got flooded and I haven’t been able to set my gear up in 3 months. Could hook my helix up to my MacBook Pro but even the room I’m in is tiny and hard to play in. Maybe tomorrow
>>122804122Pfff, whatever boomer. Let me guess, youre one of those guys that plays buttrock through a marshall and thinks its cool in 2024
>>122804069Of course but I try not to give the trolls too much information. I’m here for my amusement not theirs
>>122804147Nope I have a helix floor and a Mesa mk 5
>>122801697Yes you are precisely correct, but there's more to it. Some pickups are arranged in pairs of coils for humbucking. Some bridges allow you to move the bridge to drop it increase frequency. The rest is pocket knife fluff, you pay for fit, finish, or brand name.
>>122804141CUMSHITTER lol
>>122804141Jingle Jangle boomer strumming
>>122804167Fancy toys. But can you play ? I doubt that. Spamming the e string into a melody isnt music past the age of 13 btw
>>122804214Yes I can play many genres
>>122804229Tune your guitar atleast before recording, bro
Neil Diamond>Niel Young
>>122804250You can play covers, is what you can do, you bum. Calling my composition bad. Do you know who I am?
>>122804277Why do you strum your guitar with such aggression btw, almost like youre compensating for something else
>>122804263I said genres not covers. I don’t care who you are. Your composition is effectsmaxxed boomer trash
Thoughts on the band Genesis?
>>122804380Supper's ready, da de dum de da
>>122804380only pre phil collins, otherwise I'd rather talk about Froosh.
>>122804333Your shit is whack its why you dont post it, easy to hate from afar isnt it boomer?
>>122800634I agree, VST Amp Sims Has no sense of space Or depth, and stacking it with more digital garbage (reverbs and phasers) Doesn't it help in anyway. I could mic up my 40 dollar shitty second Amp with a ten dollar microphone And immediately get a better sound with no effort.
>>122801527bass line reminds me of Gutted
>>122804421I don’t post because my basement is fucked and I can’t fit my gear in the tinySpace I’m in
Randy Rhoads
>>122804424I doubt it, you need a lot of experimenting with mic positions and have a good room to have a good tone. The issue with ampsims is mostly the impulses don't match the amp. But again like real amps you need a lot of experimenting, and with the quality of recent tech you can get further than your regular real amp setup. Also the presets that come with amp sims usually suck so you have to go hunt for a lot of 3rd party (or match Eq your fav albums yourself) but the potential is there.
Anyone played a Reverend Double Agent OG? Please tell me they're aids so I dont have to buy one.
>>122804604I bought one for 600 from sam Ash clearance. The pick-ups are really good and build quality is great but I couldn't connect with it. I ended up selling it for 800 a month later.
>>122804393did craig write that?
>>122802328Unless you are going to be playing live you don't need anything loud. I practice through a 15 watt Ibanez amp
>>122804767Tube or solid state watts?
The answer is always Boss Katana
>>122804665They've been hard to find locally. I play mostly pop punk but I want a guitar that can do everything. Do you think it would be worth trading in a tele for one of these? Worried they might be too thick/bluesy without any normal single coils.
>>122804767>>122804882Psionic audio says at minimum you should have a 15 watt tube amp. Even if you mainly play at homehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wjkbHI-s5sQ
>>122800783Both Angus Young and Tony Iommi would kick your ass for saying that.
>>122804937i dont care what that fat divorced faggot has to sayhis mental breakdown is well documented online btw
>>122805011wat? I saw a 13 page thread about him not returning an AC15. what else is there?
Why do people get angry when you support your strumming hand with your fingers on the guitar? Does it limit mobility or something? I've seen Froosh do it before and no one called him a weasel for it.
>>122805202Nobody says or does that
>>122805271>>122805271>>122805271>>122805271
>>122804995They can barely hold those bullshit guitars, let alone kick someone’s ass.

Uhoh, what happened? Jannie didn’t like someone else beating him to the new thread?

Kek some sad shit shit ain't it
>>122805873Why would I read while I'm balls deep in ur mum?
>>122805884oh no no no
>>122805886I dunno…..maybe to educate yourself cause my mom can’t?

>>122802328Get a Peavey Vyper. For $200 you a decent amp that can double as a bass amp. Plenty loud enough for garage practice, pissing of neighbors if you live in an apartment complex, or for a teenager who wants to piss off their parents. I'd recommend the cheaper one just because the 40w 1x12 is too fucking loud inside halfway to 1.
>>122803445You don't hammer them out unless they are stainless steel People use soldering iron to soften them and then pull out with pliers Therr are plenty of videos. It's not a 300 dollar job but I'm not speaking for ss feets, I don't know about those
First one I actually own. The neck is a little thinner than my previous one so its a little weird to play on it rn.
