>>123696587I just got a Fender Squier for $0.00 (no, I will not gib it back). Wat nou? How do I get started on learning to play my favorite tunes--or just learning to play in general? Is it just a matter of learning chords and piecing them together? What about other technical aspects of playing guitar like using a capo, using an amp, or the more Music Theory-related stuff? Should I change the strings? I think they look a little rusty. What are the chances that the strings will come loose when undoing them and whip me in the face?
>>123697794>What are the chances that the strings will come loose when undoing them and whip me in the face?Very high chance, just like a piano the strings have so much tension they will literally decapitate heads and flay skin if not treated with utmost respect
>>123697866Oh my. How dangerous maintenance is. What kind of music should I have playing while attempting to gently change strings? Will this suffice? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AR8D2yqgQ1U Should I whisper sweet nothings into her headstock while doing so? "Hey baby girl~"Should I just give up and let some poor bastard set for the electric chair at one of my local music centres do it for me? That seems kinda gay.

>>123699635I made a post the other day about a comment from Segovia. He said the guitar is the only truly polyphonic instrument. Which is to say it's like a mini orchestra in one instrument. It's capable of multiple timbres and even mimicing other instruments. The only thing that can do it better is a piano.If guitar disappears, then people are retarded. It's an amazing thing. Just throwing away timeless gifts because some zoomer decided to jerk off to blacked porn or some other faggot wanted to be German and just listen to gay club music is a form of suicide. But then, humankind has a habit of destroying itself for all kinds of stupid shit. So it isn't impossible that the guitar will be gone too.

>>123696587What exactly is a guitar cab and amp? What different does it make between a cab 1x12, 2x12 and 4x12? And amps? What difference does it make between a Marshall, Fender and Vox?
>>123705419There's a lot of great - no, legendary - guitarists still alive. Too many to list. I don't have a clue who you have in mind.
>>123705511Let's say, young, still touring and releasing albums, less than 10 albums. So not counting legends I guess, if they peaked before the 10s they might as well be dead.
Is this autism?
>>123704961Gibson reinventing the guitar again
>>123705508A cab is a speaker cabinet. A 1x12 is a speaker cabinet with 1, 12 inch speaker. I will leave it to you to parse the meaning of the others.Fender amps have had several eras all with different general (very general) characteristics. The earlier designs tended to distort more easily than the latter, so we find that they tend to be cleaner as you move from 50s Tweed to 60 Blackface to 70s Silverface. Modern designs seem to tend to be some take on one of these eras.Marshall Started out building knock offs of early fenders but took it in a different direction when they realized people wanted distortion. They started tailoring their circuits to have more articulate 'high gain' tones. Largely through filtering out low end and creative cascading and cold clipper gain stages that intentionally distort one side of a signal.Vox is something else entirely. Fender, Marshall and Mesa and Soldano (sort of) can be all understood as within a family of guitar amplifier topologies, but other older companies usually had their own thing going on which is wonderful. Vox, old Gibson and Magnatone amps for example are quite different from the aforementioned and are somewhat underappreciated by some. You have to hear them to kind of triangulate how they all differ from eachother.
is a dead battery in an active bass after one month of casual play a cause for concern? i unplug it whenever its not being played
>>123706148>is a dead battery in an active bass after one month of casual play a cause for concern?probably not
I don't usually play this kind of stuff and I'm having a lot of trouble with a section where I just can't figure out how to make it not sound like shit. https://youtu.be/zR1gkHO-rHY?si=vqGoZRgf-dc6oOdI&t=691:09 if it doesn't embed properly.Found it hard but now I can play the actual notes after some practice. However I can't stop all the excess ringing of the notes when you are constantly alternating . What's actually the correct way to tackle this? Does it come from the fretting or the picking hand and how so? Don't really know how to describe a section like this so I'm not having much success trying to search it up.
>>123705607Maybe it's so you can lean it against the wall, it won't fall sideways.

I had a dream last night where I was a rich and successful blues guitarist.My ex was in it and she wasn’t impressed with my success.I don’t even play blues IRL
>>123707059Not sure what sound you're going for but a lot of the guys in the 80s used chorus with distortion. Alexi Laiho also had slight chorus always on
>>123707248i'm aiming for it to sound spacey. kind of like the drop in Stuck on You
>>123707115>I had a dream last night where I was a rich and successful blues guitarist.>My ex was in it and she wasn’t impressed with my success.Thats half of every blues players biography. Thats 100% of every jazz musicians biography lol
>>123707059Not sure what you are going for but I would definitely reconsider my EQ, as in go back to the drawing board. It is hard to know what to tell you without knowing what kind of tone stack you are working with but if it is basic TMB style tone stack I would turn everything to zero, add mids until it sounds good, add treble just until it is peaking through the mids then add bass only just until it fills out a very small amount. That might make for a good starting point. Don't pay attention to numbers as that can be misleading.

>>123703871Agreed. Hear that Gibson?!?
>>123696903was that really the reason he used it? that guitar does not look very heavy at all
>>123706992I've been thinking about getting one to okay indie alt stuff but they all look like pointy metal shits. I like metal but if I want a seven string for alt rock then I'd prefer it to look like a tele or something.
>>123707730Ernie balls have shitty end wraps that don't fit. Next time I'll get a better brand like D'Addario. Or maybe this issue shows up on those too and I'll reem it out with a drill.
>>123708100It's made out of aluminum and oak.
>>123708122Playing alt indie stuff on a metal-looking guitar would be the truly indie thing to do. Indie bands in the old days got Jazzmasters etc because they were considered dorky guitars at the time, before the indie trend made them cool. Getting a gaudy heavy metal guitar would keep up the tradition of saying "fuck you" to conventional taste.
>>123708181I wonder who got his guitar. Always wanted to try one.
>>123708235The guy that made JM's popular with that crowd was Tom Verlaine. But he just did it because he was poor, liked Fender, but they still practically giving away JMs and Jags in those days. Then the first hipster copied him: Elvis Costello. Then more to follow through the 80s that it became synonymous with alt rock. But by that point, Verlaine himself finally had enough to but a Strat, so he did. But he screwed on that old JM neck because it was still just a classic 60s Fender neck.
>>123708279but they were practically giving away JMs in the 70s*
>>123708244>I wonder who got his guitarIf I had to guess I'd assume it either went to one of his Shellac bandmates or to his wife. Considering the amount of rare gear Albini had I'm assuming his will included elaborate instructions regarding who gets what. Dude had multiple Travis Beans, a Veleno, the Harmonic Percolator and that's not even getting into all the esoteric analog recording gear he had
>>123708235>>123708279At that point I might as well just get the cheapest seven string they offer. I've been playing over ten years and I'm a big believer in the looks of a guitar giving you certain inspiration.I could probably work around the humbuckers but looking at a guitar that fits the aesthetic of the music I'm thinking would help me write the music better.
>>123708122???Most 7 and 8 strings are boring strat body types, not BC Rich pointy shapes.
>>123708385Maybe an ESP E-II T-B7? Not a cheap guitar, but kind of indie-looking as far as 7-strings go.
>>123708476Yeah I could swap the pickups out for passives. >>123708435Super strats. Strats aren't really what I'm looking for.
>>123708385Why not just buy a pedal? You'll spend 50-100 bucks instead of 1k+
>>123708494You mean something like the DigiTech Whammy?
>>123708385JM's don't have humbuckers. At least not the standard ones. Just wide looking single coils. Mostly close enough to Strat, but the middle pickup switch is kind of a out of phase twang that's good for surf. No other fender sounds like it (just like Strats and Teles have their own niche settings).
>>123708494A pedal for what? I like the way barre chords sound with a lower fifth, I don't think a harmonizer person or whatever would sound comparable.
>>123708517Shit like thishttps://strongsounds.com/pedals/best-drop-tune-pedals-for-guitar/
>>123708533No I was talking about just getting a seven string despite the metal aesthetic. I've got two JMs, they're my preferred lead guitar. I would use a 7 string tele thing for rhythm and a jm for leads and weird textures, theoretically (right now I only play a squier bass vi in an instrumental rock band lol).
>>123708555I wouldn't be using it for chugging I'd be using it for jangly chords with a lower fifth.
>>123708570Ah shit, my bad. Wasn't keeping up.

>>123710383https://www.jazzguitar.be/blog/drop-2-chords/CAGED is just a shortcut for really learning the fretboard and chord locations. Once you're fluent with CAGED (which shouldn't really take long at all), you'll want to learn drop 2 chords (which are sevenths instead of basic bitch triads). If drop 2 chords are too much, learn some shell voicings (no fifth). If you know CAGED you'll probably have a good idea of root locations, which makes learning drop 2 chords a bit easier (1 of the 4 possible configurations should be close to automatic, but the rest will be easier to locate too). Then you want to start experimenting with rootless voicings - an easy one that sounds good in major/minor is replacing the root with the second (2 frets higher) and for dominants 1 fret higher (flat 9). Or altered dominant chords, so moving the fifth up/down 1 fret. Then trying goofy chords, like lydian (moving the fifth down 1 fret on maj7). Half and full diminished too, augmented chords are just extra credit too. Then you've got pretty much all the chords down, combine that with whatever scale knowledge you have (https://fretastic.com/guitar) and you're better than 80% of guitar players IRL and 100% of /gg/ posters. From there you're only limited by your creativity. Good luck, anon!

>>123710688Those guitars are just hilarious because I simply can't see a viable target audience for them. A self-tuning guitar is like a bike with training wheels, but they were expensive as fuck so anyone willing to spend that kind of money on a guitar should be competent enough that tuning your own guitar is trivial. Were those things explicitly intended for blues lawyers who have no idea what they're doing?

>>123712513The neighbor I know who got one (that I mentioned above) was a spoiled kid at the time. He had a shitload of instruments and he wasn't even a guitarist, but a drummer (he later got pretty good at guitars too though). So that's my experience: spoiled kids.
>>123703988I have this guitar and it just leaves hand marks from playing. The Peavey Void I used to have was so awesome and never left any hand marks but I don't have it anymore.

>>123707879I’ve been playing since I was 10. I’ve been in a few good bands. Played advanced jazz for 4 years. Opened for two bands that are pretty famous.
>>123712892Probably. Still one of the funniest things said.
>>123707809Never heard of it. I have an awesome church! I have two groups a week and volunteer with people that need help. Next year I go on my first missions trip!
>>123711535>midi controllersNot a necessarily a flop, but definitely niche.>picrel has a MIDI rail slotted in front of the bridgeI don't/haven't ever listened to her (Joni Mitchell?), but damn if that isn't a clean looking guitar. A mate of mine has one on his meme Warlock that comes out with some pretty sweet sounds too. Still very niche though.
>>123703988That's called playing wear, and it is what the relic guitars are trying to simulate. People who "warn" you about playing wear are retarded.
>>123712979Satin doesn't exactly "relic" in a cool way. It looks like shit and sometimes gets even more glossy rather than worn.
>>123712976On the topic of clean guitars away from the original point of MIDI controllers since this thing doesn't have one (piezo saddle pickups). Just looks so fuckin clean. I'd love to build something myself with no pickup routs like this.
Ibanez.... reissue the Jetking.
>>123712993That depends entirely on how thick the finish is. Anyway a worn-in satin--->glossy neck is absolute peak.
>>123713062Fair enough, it does work out for good on the neck. I just think it's a cost cutting measure mostly for the company's benefit and not the player in the longterm. I'd take their cheap polys that they do on imports than a satin on an affordable US model. Unless it's like a transparent where's it's not as noticeable.
Went to the church book sale this morning looking for guitar books. No luck.
>>123713005I agree to disagree sir!
>>123712908>doesn't know how to use google.seems about right
>>123711051Took a pic of the electrics together, I need strap locks for the Gibson so I caved and bought sets for the other three that don't have any already. The P90s on the Revstar got me hooked on P90s and having individual tone and volume controls per pickup on the LP Special (plus just being better pickups than the still good sounding ones on the Revstar) makes the LP a real joy to play. It sounds great through my Princeton and the pickups go from a very clear clean to a nice dirty sound with just the volume knob. I like it more than the Revstar already and it feels really weird finally finding a LP that I feel actually clicks with me. Yeah it’s brand new and we’ll see how I feel once the new guitar dopamine hit wears off but still, it sounds and plays excellent. Thank you for coming to my blogpost. Go buy a dual P90 guitar.
>>123697070Not always. They are the ones making the OP.They are also a janny.
>ctrl f>vocaNo mountain? thread fucking sucks
>>123713542Nice collection, Anon. I've been here since the Rosewood Telecaster days. P90s are great and in my top 5 pickups, but you gotta try Dynasonics if you like P90s. Nothing like them out there.
>>123711589>better than 100% of /gg/ posters.None of what you said makes you a better guitar player. Piano players know this same information and can't play guitar for shit. You obviously haven't been in /gg/ long, there are some actual virtuosos that post. Only reason I even come to these threads is to see the retarded takes and listen to the roos.
>>123713572I still want another Tele just to tinker with, I was gonna buy one instead of the LP but I want to wait for the right deal. A relatively local shop is a G&L dealer and often has good deals on used G&Ls and I want another Tele to put either a P90 humbucker in the neck. I want another Tele that I can really dig into and mod and just play around with different pickups and stuff, I play the rosewood Tele at church every once in a while but I’m always a little nervous in the back of my mind that I’m gonna really ding it up because it was expensive and a cheap beater Tele to not need to worry about would be a nice compliment to it. The LP Special is very Tele like for me, just a slab of wood and a versatile selection of sounds and I love that about both of these guitars. I’m a Strat guy at heart but it’s hard making a Strat sound like something else, but with the Tele and LP (and Revstar) I feel like I can play anything.

>>123719735I do too, I opened the case expecting like a solid mustard yellow like you see in all the stock pictures of TV yellow Specials, not a paper thin diarrhea yellow and I like how it looks. I like seeing the grain clearly beneath the finish. The guitar fits right in with my other dookie colored guitars.
>>123719688>24 bit 44.1 kHz>COSMAmazingly, this is about on par with scams like nanocortex, and only a bit behind modern boss pedals
I picked up my guitar for the first time in 5 months after my ex broke up with me. I still suck
anyone else just brute force learning the fretboard instead of using some silly CAGED system or memorizing 3NPS shapes? i just learned the intervals and how to use them to form scales and just learned all the notes on the fretboard from memory and that was basically it. i learned all the pentatonic shapes and just filled in the rest of the notes based on the intervals
>>123713695i thought this was a meme so i bought a pack of these beers (which are delicious by the way) and put the rubber washers on one of my guitars and they work great
>>123720640Yeah I just learned what notes the frets are and was able to transfer over what I learned from playing mediocre trumpet through six years of school.
here's your less paul bro

What are some cheap, around 100$, looper+drum machine combos out there for a beginner who would like to start playing with making his own backing tracks and use it to get better at rhythm guitar?So far i found pedals like this:-Mooer groove loop X2-Flamma FS21Would appreciate any other suggestions from people who have experience with looping on budget equipment and in general.
Do Jazzmasters really make more noise?
>>123722378I wouldn't do this because the lube I use on my nut might cause cancer if ingested.
>>123703988Use a top finish that you can touch up or take back to flat with 800 grit or something. My last few builds have been semi gloss or less. They are very comfortable, but surely harder to keep clean.
>>123722555Yes, all soap bars do. The trade off is they sound much more transparent and deep but also bright.

>>123722555Yup, literally the most shit guitar ever made
just want to update yall that the broken epiphone les paul i bought with a broken headstock for $200 has been fixed, upgraded, blessed by an orthodox priest and sounds great
>>123722893Sure you may see it that way, but I'm buying to make walls of pure distortion my friend.
i fucking fell for it bros
>>123723357wtf is that?
>>123723394this thing
>>123723431kek that's got to be one of the most retarded naming conventions for a guitar manufacturer, right up there with Ibanez.Either way, are solars good? How do they compare to other bang for the buck brands like Schecter?
>>123723431Shoulda just got a Telecaster smdh
>>123723442I'd put them on par with indonesia schecter or LTD, so they're pretty good for an overseas brand. personally they're not my cup of tea though. most of them look like the batmobile
>>123723442>Either way, are solars good? How do they compare to other bang for the buck brands like Schecter?from what i gather, schecter has some good shit, some horrible shit, solar has a lot of good will in the guitar community right now, they had some fretboard splintering issues but seems good now?for the price, i thought why the fuck not. and my heart wanted it.locking tuners, rosewood fretboard, maple neck, graphtech nubone nut and heynico humbungers for the price..

>>1237242631 inch per pickup position
>>123704098Get one with a PJ configuration instead of a p or a jazz bass, since you're a beginner and probably don't have a specific sound you want to go for so might as well get the best of both worlds.
>As for what his preferred axes are at the moment, Mustaine offered:>"For guitars, it's any one of my Gibson Flying Vs, although I love my Explorer and my Les Pauls. They all sound great. The only difference is the wood, the finishing process and if the guitar has binding because that changes the sound and how it vibrates from the center to the edges. These are the things that are really neat and interesting and have to do with physics and logic and all that shit. Most guitar players don't worry about that stuff, but I'm very picky.">physics and logic and all that shitFucking lmao.
